[Monarch's greatest Greatnes heer] |
Du Bartas | ||
[Monarch's greatest Greatnes heer]
Monarch's greatest Greatnes heer,Nobles noblest Ranks and Races,
Worthies Tropheis, passing peer;
Sages Worth, for Wisdom cleer;
Time (alas!) and Death defaces.
Why then fix wee heer our Eies
On this glimpse that sudden passes?
Rather rear them to the Skies.
