Public Domain Poetry And Stories - Fair Shows Deceive. by Robert Herrick Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
Smooth was the sea, and seem'd to call
Two pretty girls to play withal:
Who paddling there, the sea soon frown'd,
And on a sudden both were drown'd.
What credit can we give to seas,
Who, kissing, kill such saints as these?
