That Providence which had so long the care
Andrew Marvell
Like the vain curlings of the watery maze,
First was the world as one great cymbal made,
Holland, that scarce deserves the name of Land,
A Poem upon the Death of His Late Highness the Lord Protector
Like the vain Curlings of the Watry maze,
See with what simplicity
As one put drunk into the Packet-boat,
Within this sober Frame expect
To the Lord Fairfax.
