Upon His Gray Hairs

    By Robert Herrick



    Fly me not, though I be gray,
    Lady, this I know you'll say;
    Better look the roses red,
    When with white commingled.
    Black your hairs are; mine are white;
    This begets the more delight,
    When things meet most opposite;
    As in pictures we descry
    Venus standing Vulcan by.
