When I was in 7th or 8th grade at Showalter Jr. High in what is now called Tukwilla, Washington, we had a text book with a poem in it by Robert Herrick (yes, I am related) called Sub Deb. My problem is that I cannot seem to find that poem again. Has anyone else heard of it?
Does anyone know the name of the Herrick poem about a tree which begins Ye who pass by and raise a hand against me hearken ere you harm me.
The reading robot is appalling and atrocious! Get rid of it henceforth! ! ! ! What an abomination to hear such a beautiful poem destroyed by this automated moron
He also wrote the Daffodils You are spose to enter this information too Ok
I have a poem book by Robert herrick to dianeme is this book worth anything
I have just won a one euro bet that the name of this poem was to daffodils and not to the daffodils. It's a great poem, and nicer in my view than the much more famous wordsworth poem.
Saw this poem on a crammed tube train in London about 30 years ago. had nowhere to look except at the angled adverts above. (alliteration unintended) -and it just stuck. Don't remember even learning it off. and now thanks to this wonderful website I found it again.
Could I translate it to Chinese and paste to my blog? Or what copyright restrictions should I follow?
