While yet the eagle preys and growls the bear | B |
While roars the lion while the crow defies | C |
The lamb who raised our race above the skies | C |
While yet the dove laments to the deaf air | B |
While mixed with goodly wheat darnel and tare | B |
Within the field of human nature rise | C |
Let that ungodly sect profanely wise | C |
That scorns our hope feed fatten and beware | B |
Soon comes the day when those grim giants fell | A |
Famed through the world dyed deep with sanguine hue | D |
Whom with feigned flatteries you applaud shall be | E |
Swept from the earth and sunk in horrid Hell | A |
Girt round with flames to weep and wail with you | D |
In doleful dungeons everlastingly | A |
Michelangelo Di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni
