TO BACCHUS, A CANTICLE by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHITHER DOST THOU WHORRY ME
Last Line: HAVING ALL, INJOY NOT ONE.
Subject(s): LOVE - COMPLAINTS;
Whither dost thou whorry me,
Bacchus, being full of Thee?
This way, that way, that way, this,
Here, and there a fresh Love is.
That doth like me, this doth please;
Thus a thousand Mistresses,
I have now; yet I alone,
Having All, injoy not One.
