61. Hark from the Tombs a doleful sound

Hark from the Tombs a doleful sound
my Ears attend the cry!
Ye living men come view the Ground
where you must shortly lie

Princes this Clay must by your Bed
In spite of all your Towrs
The tall the wise the Revrend Head
Must lie as low as ours

Princes this Clay must by your Bed
In spite of all your Towrs
The tall the wise the Revrend Head
Must lie as low as ours
