BIOGRAPHY Anglican priest Admirer of Ben Jonson Loyal to the king 1648: published his only book of poems, Hesperides. “Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying” (Ln 1-2)

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying: And this same flower that smiles to-day To-morrow will be dying. The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun, The higher he's a-getting, The sooner will his race be run, And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first, When youth and blood are warmer; But being spent, the worse, and worst Times still succeed the former. Then be not coy, but use your time, And while ye may, go marry: For having lost but once your prime You may for ever tarry.

Tone: serious but playful Theme: Time Rhyme: ababcdcdefefghgh, exact rhyme Rhythm: Alternating Iambic Tetrameter and Iambic Trimeter with Catalexis Symbolism: flowers life cycle Personification: “The sooner will his race be run” (ln 7) Type: Lyric Poem
