[The sentence pass'd on Adam's race]
It is appointed unto men once to die.
—ix. 27.
The sentence pass'd on Adam's race
I meekly in myself receive,
141
That here I have not long to live:
I hasten to my real home,
For no reprieve, or respite cry;
But when the fatal hour is come,
My only business be—to die.
