To His Paternal Country
by Robert HerrickO earth! earth! earth! hear thou my voice, and be
Loving and gentle for to cover me!
Banish'd from thee I live; ne'er to return,
Unless thou giv'st my small remains an urn.
O earth! earth! earth! hear thou my voice, and be
Loving and gentle for to cover me!
Banish'd from thee I live; ne'er to return,
Unless thou giv'st my small remains an urn.
