Upon Cupid.

    By Robert Herrick



    As lately I a garland bound,
    'Mongst roses I there Cupid found;
    I took him, put him in my cup,
    And drunk with wine, I drank him up.
    Hence then it is that my poor breast
    Could never since find any rest.



Extra Info:
Upon Cupid. Taken from Anacreon, 5.

{Stephos plekôn poth' heuron
en tois rhodois Erôta;
kai tôn pterôn kataschôn
ebaptis' eis ton oinon;
labôn d' epinon auton,
kai nyn esô melôn mou
pteroisi gargalizei.}
