Life Is The Bodys Light
Read 'Life Is The Bodys Light' by 'Robert Herrick' and provide your summary and literary analysis in the comments section below.
Life is the body's light; which, once declining,
Those crimson clouds i' th' cheeks and lips leave shining:-
Those counter-changed tabbies in the air,
The sun once set, all of one colour are:
So, when death comes, fresh tinctures lose their place,
And dismal darkness then doth smutch the face.
