Public Domain Poetry And Stories - Out Of Time, Out Of Tune. by Robert Herrick Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
We blame, nay, we despise her pains
That wets her garden when it rains:
But when the drought has dried the knot,
Then let her use the wat'ring-pot.
We pray for showers, at our need,
To drench, but not to drown our seed.
