        To DAFFODILS

                                      By Robert Herrick

Fair Duffodils, we weep to see
      You haste away so soon;
As yet the early rising sun
      Has not attain'd his noon.
             Stay , stay ,
     Until the hasting day
              Has run
    But to the even-song;
And, having pray'd together, we
     Will go with you along .

We have short time to stay ,as you ,
    We have as short a spring ,
As quick a growth to meet decay
     As you, or any thing .
            We die ,
As your hours do, any dry
             Away
     Like to the summer 's rain
Or as the pearls of mornings dew ,
     Ne' er to be found again .
