[Go, view the dwellings of the great]
Go, view the dwellings of the great,The spacious court, the tow'ring seat,
The roofs of costly form, the fret-work and the gold;
Mark the bright tap'stry scenes, and say,
Will these make wrinkled age delay,
Or warm the cheek, and paint it gay,
When death spreads o'er the face her frightful pale and cold?
