The New-yeeres Gift
Let others look for Pearle and Gold,
Tissues, or Tabbies manifold:
One onely lock of that sweet Hay
Whereon the blessed Babie lay,
Or one poore Swadling-clout, shall be
The richest New-yeeres Gift to me.
Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
*I did not find this on purpose, and I wasn't even looking for poetry, and I came across this here.
