To Anthea
If deare Anthea , my hard fate it be
To live some few-sad-howers after thee:
Thy sacred Corse with Odours I will burne;
And with my Lawrell crown thy Golden Urne .
Then holding up (there) such religious Things,
As were (time past) thy holy Filletings:
Near to thy Reverend Pitcher I will fall
Down dead for grief, and end my woes withall:
So three in one small plat of ground shall ly,
Anthea, Herrick , and his Poetry .
