A poem by (Poet) Robert Herrick

Temporal Goods

________________________________________________
Title:     Temporal Goods
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

These temporal goods God, the most wise, commends
To th' good and bad in common for two ends:
First, that these goods none here may o'er-esteem
Because the wicked do partake of them;
Next, that these ills none cowardly may shun,
Being, oft here, the just man's portion.








[The end]
(Poet) Robert Herrick's poem: Temporal Goods
