A satirical poet is the check of the laymen on bad priests

All things are hush'd, as Nature's self lay dead, The Mountains seem to nod their drowsy head; The little Birds in dreams their Songs repeat, And sleeping Flowers, beneath the night-dew sweat; Even Lust and Envy sleep.

But Shakespeare's magic could not copied be; Within that circle none durst walk but he.

Thus all below is strength, and all above is grace.

An horrid stillness first invades the ear, And in that silence we the tempest fear.

So softly death succeeded life in her, She did but dream of heaven, and she was there.

Their heavenly harps a lower strain began, And in soft music mourn the fall of man.
