    As the sweet voice of a bird,
    Heard by the lander in a lonely isle,
    Moves him to think what kind of bird it is,
    That sings so delicately clear, and make
    Conjecture of the plumage and the form.

That eagle's fate and mine are one,
Which, on the shaft that made him die,
Espied a read more

That eagle's fate and mine are one,
Which, on the shaft that made him die,
Espied a feather of his own,
Wherewith he wont to soar so high.
