Poem by Thomas Urquhart
Epigrams. The First Booke. № 21. To one bewailing the death of another
You have no cause to thinke it strange, that he
Hath yeelded up his last, and fatall breath;
For ’tis no wonder for a man to dye,
Whose life is but a journey into Death:
Nor is there any man of life deprived
For age, or sicknesse: but because he lived.
Thomas Urquhart
