Rock Of Rubbies: And The Quarrie Of Pearls, The by: Robert Herrick (1591 - 1674)
Some ask'd me where the Rubies grew?
And nothing did I say,
But with my finger pointed to
The lips of Julia.
Some ask'd how Pearls did grow, and where?
Then spoke I to my Girle,
To part her lips and shew'd them there
The Quarelets of Pearl.
One asked me where the roses grew;
I bade him not go seek,
But forthwith bade my Julia show
A bud in either cheek.
