ON SIR ROBERT COTTON, THE ANTIQUARY, by THOMAS RANDOLPH Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Posterity hath many fates bemoan'd Last Line: Who ne'er had vanquish'd all things but in thee. Subject(s): Cotton, Sir Robert Bruce (1561-1631) | |||
POSTERITY hath many fates bemoan'd, But ages long since past for thee have groan'd. Time's trophies thou didst rescue from the grave, Who in thy death a second burial have. Cotton, death's conquest now complete I see, Who ne'er had vanquish'd all things but in thee. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ODE TO MASTER ANTHONY STAFFORD [TO HASTEN HIM INTO COUNTRY] by THOMAS RANDOLPH UPON HIS PICTURE by THOMAS RANDOLPH A CHARACTER by THOMAS RANDOLPH A COMPLAINT AGAINST CUPID, THAT HE NEVER MADE HIM IN LOVE by THOMAS RANDOLPH A DIALOGUE BETWIXT A NYMPH AND A SHEPHERD by THOMAS RANDOLPH A MASK FOR LYDIA by THOMAS RANDOLPH A PARENETICON TO THE TRULY NOBLE GENTLEMAN MASTER ENDYMION PORTER by THOMAS RANDOLPH A PARLEY WITH HIS EMPTY PURSE by THOMAS RANDOLPH A PASTORAL COURTSHIP by THOMAS RANDOLPH |
