Epig. 6. Epitaph on Mahomet the Second, Emperour of Turkes, Anno Dom. 1450 .
I that so many nations haveTumbled together in one grave,
Am now by Death, which all devowers,
Layd here; where now are my powers?
Phillip's mad Sonne's most glorious Fame,
Compard with me shall want a Name,
And mighty Julius have small glory,
Parrallel'd with my Deathless story:
I the Greeks vanquish't, all Epire,
I tam'd, and with vindictive ire,
Made the squat bodied Tartars stoope,
Th' Assyrians under me did droope,
Likewise the Arabs, fierce and wilde,
I Persia, and Hungaria spoild,
146
Had the three Sisters spar'd my life:
Death in the twinkling of an eye
Forc'd me to a Satietie,
So perished the Pride of Glory,
Proving all things but Transitory.
