| 14. Eternitie |
| By Robert Herrick (15911674) |
| |
| O YEARES! and Age! Farewell | |
| Behold I go, | |
| Where I do know | |
| Infinitie to dwell. | |
| |
| And these mine eyes shall see | 5 |
| All times, how they | |
| Are lost i th Sea | |
| Of vast Eternitie. | |
| |
| Where never Moone shall sway | |
| The Starres; but she, | 10 |
| And Night, shall be | |
| Drownd in one endlesse Day. | |
