The Hour Glass

Consider this small dust, here in the glass, By atoms moved: Could you believe that this the body was Of one that loved; And in his mistress' flame playing like a fly, Was turned to cinders by her eye: Yes; and in death, as life unblessed, To have it expressed, Even ashes of lovers find no rest.
