Sorrows Succeed.

    By Robert Herrick



    When one is past, another care we have:
    Thus woe succeeds a woe, as wave a wave.






Extra Info:
Thus woe succeeds a woe as wave a wave. Horace, Ep. II. ii. 176: Velut unda supervenit unda. {Kymata kakôn} and {kakôn trikymia} are common phrases in Greek tragedy.
