MONTES SCRIPTURARUM, THE MOUNTS OF THE SCRIPTURES by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: THE MOUNTAINS OF THE SCRIPTURES ARE (SOME SAY)
Last Line: TH' APOSTLES MOUNTS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT.

The Mountains of the Scriptures are (some say)
Moses, and Jesus, called Joshua:
The Prophets Mountains of the Old are meant;
Th' Apostles Mounts of the New Testament.
