Robert Herrick

Discontents in Devon

More discontents I never had
        Since I was born, than here;
Where I have been, and still am, sad,
        In this dull Devonshire.
Yet justly too I must confess,
        I ne’er invented such
Ennobled numbers for the press,
        Than where I loath’d so much.
