    O Ye that put your trust and confidence
    In worldly joy and frail prosperity,
    That so live here as ye should never hence,
    Remember death and look here upon me.

    Nothing on earth more would I have,
    Save that I have, to have it still.
    Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    Neither by night’s ancient fear,
    The parting of hat from hair,
    Pursed lips at the receiver,
    Shall I fall to death’s feather.
    By these I would not care to die,
    Half convention and half lie.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
