  • Welcome, sweet Death!
    Go, nightly cares, the enemy to rest,
    Forbear awhile to vex my grieved sprite;
    So long your weight hath lain upon my breast
    That, lo! I live of life bereaved quite:
    O give me time to draw my wearied breath,
    Or let me die as I desire the death.
    Welcome, sweet Death! O life, no life, a hell!
    Then thus and thus I bid the world farewell.
    False world, farewell, the enemy to rest,
    Now do thy worst, I do not weigh thy spite;
    Free from thy cares I live for ever blest,
    Enjoying peace and heavenly true delight:
    Delight, whom woes nor sorrows shall amate,
    Nor fears or tears disturb her happy state:
    And thus I leave thy hopes, thy joys untrue,
    And thus, and thus, vain world, again adieu!
