His Divine Weekes And Workes with A Compleate Collectio[n] of all the other most delight-full Workes: Translated and written by yt famous Philomusus: Iosvah Sylvester
Ice is fair, and shines externall;
Fair and shining th'All-Theater:
From the Ice they fall in Water;
From the World to Death eternall.
Both at last shall vanish: Ice
Into Water shall re-solve;
All the World (and all his Vice)
Into Nothing shall dissolve.
