Like as the waves make towards the pebbled¹ shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end； Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil² all forwards do contend. Nativity, once in the main of light, Crawls to maturity³, wherewith being crown'd, Crooked⁴ eclipses 'gainst his glory fight, And Time that gave doth now his gift confound. Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth And delves⁵ the parallels in beauty's brow, Feeds on the rarities of nature's truth, And nothing stands but for his scythe⁶ to mow⁷： And yet to times in hope, my verse shall stand. Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.
