“My prime of youth is but a frost of cares,
My feast of joy is but a dish of pain,
My crop of corn is but a field of tares,
And all my good is but vain hope of gain:
The day is past, and yet I saw no sun,
And now I live, and now my life is done.”

So bloodily hast struck?”

Infatuate of the flesh upon the bones;

The pieces kiss again, no end to this.”
