I ruin to eternity. O, my lords,

Consider your own places and the helms

You sit at; while with all your providence

You steer, look forth and see devouring quicksands!

My ambition now is punished, and my pride

Of state and greatness falling into nothing;

I, that had never time, through vast employments,

To think of Heaven, feel His revengeful wrath

Boiling my blood and scorching up my entrails.

There’s doomsday in my conscience, black and horrid,
