Funerall Elegies: Eleg. 22

YEares, fully laden with their months, attend
Th' expired times acquitance, and so end:
Months gone their dates of numbered daies require
Bright Cynia's full discharge, and so expire;
Dayes deepely ag'd with houres, lose their light,
And having runne their stage, conclude with night:
And howers chac'd with light-foot minutes, flye,
Tending their labour to a new supply;
Yet Ailmers glory never shall diminish,
Though yeares and months, though daies & howers finish
Yet Ailmers joyes for ever shall extend,
Though yeares, & months, though daies and howers end.
