TheKING.
He that is To-Day a King To-Morrow shall die.
Ecclesiasticusx. 10.
To him who this Day Sceptres sways,In costly Pride a King,To-Morrow’s Light, with baleful Speed,A direful Fate will bring:For, him who rules o’er Nations rich,And pow’rful Kingdoms guides,When Death his Office bids him quit,No better Fate betides.
