    Will have their victims; and the best die first,
    Leaving the bad still strong, though past their prime,
    To curse the hopeless world they ever curs'd
    Vaunting vile deeds, and vainest of the worst.

Awhile of longer wonderment the theme!
Who shall presume to prophesy their date,
Where nought is certain save the uncertainty of fate?
