by_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n too_o that_o man_n may_v see_v his_o face_n vi_o or_o that_o the_o promise_v he_o have_v make_v also_o the_o threaten_n great_a shall_v in_o a_o moment_n end_n and_o

the_o man_n that_o have_v a_o lion_n face_n must_v here_o give_v place_n and_o bend_v yea_o though_o his_o bone_n be_v bar_n of_o brass_n it_o be_v vain_a here_o to_o contend_v 6._o submit_v he_o must_v to_o feeble_a one_o to_o worm_n who_o will_v enclose_v his_o skin_n and_o flesh_n sinew_n and_o bone_n and_o will_v thereof_o dispose_v 7._o among_o themselves_o as_o merchant_n do_v the_o prize_n they_o have_v get_v or_o as_o the_o soldier_n give_v unto_o each_o man_n the_o share_n and_o lot_n 8._o which_o they_o by_o dint_n of_o sword_n have_v win_v from_o their_o most_o dare_a foe_n while_o he_o lie_v by_o as_o still_o as_o stone_n not_o know_v what_o they_o do_v 9_o beauty_n death_n turn_v to_o rottenness_n and_o youth_n to_o wrinkle_a face_n the_o witty_a he_o bring_v to_o

man_n from_o his_o care_n 11._o death_n favour_v none_o he_o lay_v at_o all_o of_o all_o sort_n and_o degree_n both_o old_a and_o young_a both_o great_a and_o small_a rich_a poor_a and_o bind_v and_o free_a 12._o no_o fawn_a word_n will_v flatter_v he_o nor_o threaten_n make_v he_o start_v he_o favour_v none_o for_o worth_n or_o kin_n all_o must_v taste_v of_o his_o dart._n 13._o what_o shall_v i_o say_v the_o grave_n declare_v that_o death_n shall_v conquer_v all_o there_o lie_v the_o skull_n dust_n bone_n and_o there_o the_o mighty_a daily_a fall_n 14._o the_o very_a look_n of_o death_n be_v grim_a and_o ghastly_a to_o behold_v yea_o though_o but_o in_o a_o dead-mans-skin_n when_o he_o be_v go_v and_o cold_a 15._o how_o afraid_a be_v some_o of_o dead-men_n bed_n and_o other_o of_o their_o bone_n they_o neither_o care_v to_o see_v their_o head_n nor_o yet_o to_o hear_v their_o groan_n 16._o now_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v but_o the_o shade_n and_o badge_n of_o his_o coat_n the_o glass_n that_o run_v the_o since_o and_o spade_n though_o weapon_n more_o remote_a 17._o yet_o such_o as_o make_v poor_a mortal_n shrink_v and_o fear_v when_o they_o be_v tell_v these_o thing_n be_v sign_n that_o they_o must_v drink_v with_o death_n o_o then_o how_o can_v 18._o it_o strike_v they_o to_o the_o heart_n how_o do_v they_o study_v it_o to_o shun_v indeed_o who_o can_v bear_v up_o
