In courts, or fill the golden seat of kings:

O sons of sport and pleasure: O thou wretch

That weep’st for jealous love, or the sore wounds

Of conscious guilt, or death’s rapacious hand

Which left thee void of hope: O ye who roam

In exile; ye who through th’ embattl’d field

Seek bright renown; or who for nobler palms

Contend, the leaders of a public cause;

Approach: behold this marble. Know ye not

The features? Hath not oft his faithful tongue
