Anacreontic

Title:     Anacreontic
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

Born I was to be old,
And for to die here;
After that, in the mould
Long for to lie here.
But before that day comes,
Still I be bousing;
For I know, in the tombs
There's no carousing.

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