With eastern banners flaunting in the breezeB
Royal processions sounding fife and gongC
And showering jewels on the jostling throngC
March to the tramp of Marlowe's harmoniesB
He drained life's brimming goblet to the leesB
He recked not that a peer superb and strongC
Would tune great notes to his impassioned songC
And top his cannonading lines with easeB
To the wild clash of cymbals we beholdD
The tragic ending of his youthful lifeE
The revelry of kisses bought with goldD
The jest and jealous rival and the strifeE
A harlot weeping o'er a corpse scarce coldD
A scullion fleeing with a bloody knifeE
