     Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives,

     Live registred upon our brazen tombs,

     And then grace us in the disgrace of death;

     When, spite of cormorant devouring Time,

     The endeavour of this present breath may buy

     That honour which shall bate his scythes keen edge,

     And make us heirs of all eternity.
