Upon The Detracter [epigram]

________________________________________________
Title:     Upon The Detracter [epigram]
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

I ask'd thee oft what poets thou hast read,
And lik'st the best? Still thou repli'st, The dead.
--I shall, ere long, with green turfs cover'd be;
Then sure thou'lt like, or thou wilt envy, me.
