[MysteRy]

What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals!

[MysteRy]

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; Youth is full of pleasure age is full of care; Youth like summer morn age like winter weather; Youth like summer brave age like winter bare. Youth is full sport age's breath is short; Youth is nimble age is lame; Youth is hot and bold age is weak and cold; Youth is wild age is tame. Age I do abhor thee; youth I do adore thee.

[MysteRy]

Tis mightiest in the mightiest; it becomes The throned monarch better than his crown; His sceptre shows the force of temporal power The attribute to awe and majesty Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; But mercy is above this sceptred sway; It is enthroned in the hearts of kings It is an attribute to God himself; And earthly power doth then show likest God's When mercy seasons justice.
