The
B-side of No. 21:
Jim’s
mentioned reading Robert Herrick, so:
Delight
in Disorder
By Robert
Herrick
A sweet
disorder in the dress
Kindles
in clothes a wantonness;
A lawn
about the shoulders thrown
Into a
fine distraction;
An erring
lace, which here and there
Enthrals
the crimson stomacher;
A cuff
neglectful, and thereby
Ribands
to flow confusedly;
A winning
wave, deserving note,
In the
tempestuous petticoat;
A
careless shoe-string, in whose tie
I see a
wild civility:
Do more
bewitch me, than when art
Is too
precise in every part.
