To Death.

TO thee whose auaritious greedy mood, Doth play at sweepe-stake with all liuing things: And like a Hors-leech Quaffes the seuerall blood, Of Subiects, Abiects, Emperours and Kings: That high and lowe, and all must feele thy slings, The Lord, the Lowne, the Catife and the Keasar, A beggers death as much contentment brings To thee, as did the fall of Iulius Ceasar. Then since the good and bad are all as one, And Larkes to thee, no better are then Kites, Take then the bad, and let the good alone, Feede on base wretches, leaue the worthy wights. With thee the wicked euermore will stay, But from thee, Fame will take the good away.
