UPON HIMSELF (6) by ROBERT HERRICK

Poet Analysis

First Line: TH'ART HENCE REMOVING, (LIKE A SHEPHERD'S TENT)
Last Line: MARKT IN THY BOOK FOR FAITHFULL WITNESSES.

Th'art hence removing, (like a Shepherds Tent)
And walk thou must the way that others went:
Fall thou must first, then rise to life with These,
Markt in thy Book for faithfull Witnesses.
