| But be contented: when that fell arrest | 1 |
|
|
| Without all bail shall carry me away, |
|
|
| My life hath in this line some interest, |
|
|
| Which for memorial still with thee shall stay. |
|
|
| When thou reviewest this, thou dost review | 5 |
|
|
| The very part was consecrate to thee: |
|
|
| The earth can have but earth, which is his due; |
|
|
| My spirit is thine, the better part of me: |
|
|
| So then thou hast but lost the dregs of life, |
|
|
| The prey of worms, my body being dead; | 10 |
|
|
| The coward conquest of a wretch's knife, |
|
|
| Too base of thee to be remembered,. |
|
|
 The worth of that is that which it contains, |
|
|
| And that is this, and this with thee remains. |
