Robert Herrick - His Prayer To Ben Jonson
Work rating: Medium

When I a verse shall make,
Know I have pray`d thee,
For old religion`s sake,
Saint Ben to aid me.

Make the way smooth for me,
When I, thy Herrick,
Honouring thee, on my knee
Offer my lyric.

Candles I`ll give to thee,
And a new altar,
And thou, Saint Ben, shalt be
Writ in my psalter.
