Funerall Elegies: Eleg. 21

WOuldst thou, when death had done deserve a story
Should staine the memory of great Pompeyes glory?
Conquer thy selfe; example be thy guide;
Dye just as our selfe-conquering Ailmer dyde,
Woldst thou subdue more kingdōes, gain mo crowns
Than that brave Hero Caesar conquer'd townes?
Then conquer death; Example be thy guide:
Die just as our death-conquering Ailmer dyde:
But woldst thou win more worlds, than he had done
Kingdomes, that all the earth hath over-runne?
Then conquer heaven; example be thy guide;
Die just as our heaven-conquering Ailmer dyde.
