TT: Almanac

If thou dislik'st the Piece thou light'st on first;

Thinke that of All, that I have writ, the worst:

But if thou read'st my Book unto the end,

And still do'st this, and that verse, reprehend:

O Perverse man! If All disgustfull be,

The Extreame Scabbe take thee, and thine, for me.

Robert Herrick, "To the Soure Reader" (courtesy of Hannah Farber)
