But t is our Sins , makes Fatal Stars Combine , To snap in sunder England's Royal Line ; Our mighty Monarch , when this News he hea●● He will Lament , in sad and Brinish Tears ; Such dis●●l News ne're Touch●… 〈…〉 Here needs no Daubing , Flattery to Paint , A Vicious Mortal for a very Saint ; No Poets Art to praise him now he 's gone , Who had so many Virtues of his own ; His Youthful Heart rejoyc'd in Englands good , And though a Child , for our Just Rights he stood . Yet while we Sigh , what Fate will have , must be , No Power on Earth can alter Heaven's Decree ; The Great , the Good , both Old and Young must Die , A Debt to Nature due , none can deny ; No Heirs to Crowns , can be Exempt from Death , The Greatest Monarch , must resign his Breath . Here lies a Princely Body in the Dust , A Child in Years , yet Pious , Wise and Just ; The hopes of England's Glory and Renown , Tho not on Earth in Heaven he wears a Crown .
