O years! and age! farewell:
Behold I go,
Where I do know
Infinity to dwell.
And these mine eyes shall see
All times, how they
Are lost i' th' sea
Of vast eternity:—
Where never moon shall sway
The stars; but she,
And night, shall be
Drown'd in one endless day.
I am busy working to bring Robert Herrick's "Eternity" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Robert Herrick's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Eternity" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
