Excerpt from A Collection of Epitaphs and Monumental Inscriptions, Ancient and Modern: With an Emblematical Frontispiece
The cloud capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, Yea, and all which it inherits, shall dissolve, And like the baseless fabric of a vision Leave not a wreck behind.
