Who all his life collected bones,
Till Death, that grim and boney spectre,
That universal bone collector,

And here he lies, all bona fide.”

Wherein our Saviour’s birth is celebrated,
This bird of dawning singeth all night long,
And then they say no spirit dare stir abroad,
The nights are wholesome, then no planets strike,
No fairy takes, nor witch hath power to charm,
So hallowed, and so gracious, is that time.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

Time has estranged you into a jewel cold and pure;”
