Dare write, or read, a Capell's elegy;

Spangle his hearse with pearls, such as were born

'Twixt the blear'd eyelids of an o'ercast morn;

And (but 'tis vain t'expostulate with Death

Or vilify the Fates with frustrate breath)

Pose Destiny with why's—why such a sun

Should set before his noontide stage were run?

Why this fair volume should be bound so fast

10In wooden covers, clasp'd-up in such haste?

Was Nature fond of its large character
