That may succeed as his inheritor;

One sorrow never comes but brings an heir,
That may succeed as his inheritor;
And so in ours, some neighboring nation,
Taking advantage of our misery,

To beat us down, the which are down already;
And make a conquest of unhappy,
Whereas no glory 's got to overcome.
