Another Ceremony

________________________________________________
Title:     Another Ceremony
Author: (Poet) Robert Herrick [More Titles by Herrick]

Down with the rosemary, and so

Down with the bays and mistletoe;

Down with the holly, ivy, all

Wherewith ye dressed the Christmas hall,

That so the superstitious find

No one last branch there left behind;

For, look! how many leaves there be

Neglected there, maids, trust to me

So many goblins you shall see.

[The end]
Robert Herrick's poem: Another Ceremony
