Title:     The Bleeding Hand; Or The Sprig Of Eglantine Given To A Maid
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

From this bleeding hand of mine,
Take this sprig of Eglantine:
Which, though sweet unto your smell,
Yet the fretful briar will tell,
He who plucks the sweets, shall prove
Many thorns to be in love.

[The end]
(Poet) Robert Herrick's poem: Bleeding Hand; Or The Sprig Of Eglantine Given To A Maid
