No! Time,/ thou shalt | not* boast | that I | do
change,
, , ,
, ,
Thy pyr|amids | built^up | with new|er might
, , , ,
,
To me | are noth|ing no|vel, noth|ing strange;
, , ,
, ,
They are | but dres|sings of | a form|er sight.
, ,
, , ,
Our dates | are brief,| and there|fore we | admire
, ,
, , ,
What thou | dost^foist | upon | us that | is old,
, , ,
, ,
And rath|er make | them born | to our | desire
, ,
, , ,
Than think | that we | before | have heard | them
told.
, , ,
, ,
Thy reg|isters | and thee | I both | defy,
, 2 ,
, , ,
Not wond|ering at | the pres|ent nor | the past,
, ,
, , ,
For thy | records,| and what | we see | doth lie,
, ,
, , 2 ,
Made^more | or less | by thy | contin|ual haste.
, ,
, , ,
This I | do vow | and this | shall ev|er be,
, ,
, , ,
I will | be true | despite | thy scythe | and
thee.
