Epitaph on the Earl of Strafford
Here lies wise and valiant dust,
Huddled up 'twixt fit and just:
Strafford, who was hurried hence
'Twixt treason and convenience.
He spent his time here in a mist:
A papist, yet a Calvinist.
His prince's nearest joy, and grief.
He had, yet wanted, all relief.
The prop and ruin of the state;
The people's violent love, and hate:
One in extremes loved and abhorred.
Riddles lie here; or in a word,
Here lies blood, and let it lie
Speechless still, and never cry.
– John Cleveland (1647)
