| What is our life? |
|---|
| What is our life? |
| a play of passion: |
| Our mirth? |
| the music of division |
| Our mothers' wombs the tyring-houses be |
| Where we are drest for this short comedy: |
| Heaven the judicious sharp spectator is |
| That sits and marks whoe’er doth act amiss: |
| Our graves, that hide us from the searching sun |
| Are like drawn curtains when the play is done: |
| Thus march we playing to our latest rest |
| Only we die in earnest, — that’s no jest |
