(Herrick's iambic trimeter is varied in the marked lines so that it scans: / * * / * /. What do we call this practice?)
Thou bidst me come away,
And I'll no longer stay,
Than for to shed some tears
For faults of former years;
And to repent some crimes
Done in the present times;
And next, to take a bit
Of bread, and wine with it;
To don my robes of love,
Fit for the place above;
To gird my loins about
