CAELICA: 82 by FULKE GREVILLE

Poet Analysis

First Line: YOU THAT SEEK WHAT LIFE IS IN DEATH
Last Line: BUT STEPS TO YOUR ETERNITY.

You that seek what life is in death,
Now find it air that once was breath.
New names unknown, old names gone;
Till time end bodies, but souls none.
Reader! then make time, while you be
But steps to your eternity.
