Robert Herrick
| Eternitie |
| By Robert Herrick (1591–1674) |
| 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 | |
| Drown’d in one endlesse Day. |

A Canticle to Apollo
Play, Phoebus, on thy lute,
And we will sit all mute;
By listening to thy lyre,
That sets all ears on fire.
Hark, hark! the God does play!
And as he leads the way
Through heaven, the very spheres,
As men, turn all to ears!
