To whom dust is the period,

Who am not sure to farme this very houre?

For how know I the latest sand

In my fraile glasse of life, doth not now fall?

And while I thus astonisht stand

I but prepare for my own funerall?

Death doth with man no order keepe:

It reckons not by the expence of yeares,

But makes the Queene and beggar weepe,

And nere distinguishes betweene their teares.
