\n\tAnd tell sad stories of the death of kings;
\n\tHow some have been deposed; some slain in war,
\n\tSome haunted by the ghosts they have deposed;
\n\tSome poison’d by their wives: some sleeping kill’d;
\n\tAll murder’d: for within the hollow crown
\n\tThat rounds the mortal temples of a king
\n\tKeeps Death his court and there the antic sits,
\n\tScoffing his state and grinning at his pomp,
\n\tAllowing him a breath, a little scene,
\n\tTo monarchize, be fear’d and kill with looks,
\n\tInfusing him with self and vain conceit,
\n\tAs if this flesh which walls about our life,
\n\tWere brass impregnable, and humour’d thus
\n\tComes at the last and with a little pin–
\n\tBores through his castle wall, and farewell king!”
