UPON JULIA'S CLOTHES.
by Robert Herrick
WHENAS in silks my Julia goes,
Then, then, methinks, how sweetly flows
That liquefaction of her clothes.
Next, when I cast mine eyes and see
That brave vibration each way free ;
O how that glittering taketh me !
This is a parody of a poem displayed in my notes.
There she goes, his paramour,
Clad (of course) in silk-du-jour,
Jiggling from head to floor
As though he’d never seen her before!
When he steals another glance,
How drastically she’s changed her stance:
The silk is now remember-ance
As will soon become his pants.
