      ^^^^^^^^ I ^ B ^^^^^^^^^^^^ AG-AINST- THE FEAR OF DEATH . ( From the Arcadia * Lib . 5 . ) Since Nature ^ s works "be good ^ and Death doth serve As Nature ' s work : why should we Fear

      to die ? Since fear is vain , but when it may preserve , Why should we fear that which we cannot fly ? Fear is more pain than is the pain it fears , Disarming' human minds of native might : While each conceit an ugly figure bears , Which were not evil , well viewed in reason ' s light . Only our eyes , whicli dimm'd with passions be , And scarce discern the dawn of

      coining-Let them be clear ed , and now begin to see Our life is but a step in dusty way . Then let us hold the bliss < vf peaceful mind , Since tins we feel , great loss we cannot find .
