The Gentleman

What Man Is He That Liveth, and Shall Not See Death? Shall He Deliver His Soul From the Hand of the Grave?

Psalm lxxxix. 48.

What Man is he, however brave,
Of mightiest Pow’r possest,
Who in this mortal World shall live,
And Death shall never taste?

What Man is he who Death’s fell Dart,
Which conquers all, can brave?
Who his own Life, by Force or Skill,
From Death can hope to save?
