Robert Herrick

The Transfiguration

Immortal clothing I put on
So soon as, Julia, I am gone
To mine eternal mansion.
 
Thou, thou art here, to human sight
Clothed all with incorrupted light;
—But yet how more admir’dly bright
 
Wilt thou appear, when thou art set
In thy refulgent thronelet,
That shin’st thus in thy counterfeit!
