His Ejaculation To God

Title:     His Ejaculation To God
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

My God! look on me with Thine eye
Of pity, not of scrutiny;
For if Thou dost, Thou then shalt see
Nothing but loathsome sores in me.
O then, for mercy's sake, behold
These my eruptions manifold,
And heal me with Thy look or touch;
But if Thou wilt not deign so much,
Because I'm odious in Thy sight,
Speak but the word, and cure me quite.

[The end]
(Poet) Robert Herrick's poem: His Ejaculation To God
