HIS CHANGE by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: MY MANY CARES AND MUCH DISTRESS
Last Line: AND AS IN MEANES, IN MINDE ALL TORNE.

My many cares and much distress,
Has made me like a wilderness:
Or (discompos'd) I'm like a rude,
And all confused multitude:
Out of my comely manners worne;
And as in meanes, in minde all torne.
