Public Domain Poetry And Stories - Bad Princes Pill The People. by Robert Herrick Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
Like those infernal deities which eat
The best of all the sacrificed meat;
And leave their servants but the smoke and sweat:
So many kings, and primates too there are,
Who claim the fat and fleshy for their share
And leave their subjects but the starved ware.
