In virtue when I see you make such speed, Oh! it doth then no admiration breed, Hy, on hy hills of honor that you stand: Nature commandeth virtue such a band. Honor on virtue ever should attend: Oh, on hy hills you may forever wend: Loving of virtue which doth shine so clear, Likely it is, you Earl of Clare appear. Insue then well, what you have well begun, So on hy hills to stand you well have won. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LAST LINES OF THOMAS INGOLDSBY by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM EXCELLENCY OF CHRIST by GILES FLETCHER THE YOUNGER ON SEEING THE ELGIN MARBLES by JOHN KEATS CHAUCER; SONNET by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW A FRAGMENT FROM THE AGAMEMNON OF AESCHYLOS by AESCHYLUS TIME'S REVENGE by AGATHIAS SCHOLASTICUS |
