@3Prince Aga, his eyes put out and hands cut off by Acomat@1. ... Oh Thou supreme Architect of all, First Mover of those tenfold crystal orbs, Where all those moving and unmoving eyes Behold Thy goodness everlastingly; See, unto Thee I lift these bloody arms: For hands I have not for to lift to Thee; And in Thy justice dart thy smould'ring flame Upon the head of cursèd Acomat. Oh cruel heavens and injurious fates! Even the last refuge of a wretched man Is took from me; for how can Aga weep? Or run a brinish shower of pearled tears, Wanting the watery cisterns of his eyes? Come, lead me back again to Bajazet, The wofullest and saddest ambassador That ever was despatched to any king. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NEW-MADE HONOUR (IMITATED FROM MARTIAL) by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM MEDIOCRITY IN LOVE REJECTED by THOMAS CAREW ON THE SOUL by PUBLIUS AELIUS HADRIANUS TO A CONTEMPORARY BUNKSHOOTER by CARL SANDBURG LITTLE JERRY, THE MILLER by JOHN GODFREY SAXE TO THE STATES.
