The body is the souls poor house or home, whose ribs the laths are

The body is the souls poor house or home, whose ribs the laths are and whose flesh the loam. – Robert Herrick

Other quotes by Robert Herrick

Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score;
Then to that twenty, add a hundred more:
A thousand to that hundred: so kiss on,
To make that thousand up a million.
Treble that million, and when that is done,
Lets kiss afresh, as when we first begun. – Robert Herrick
