Changelessness + 

When Death shall touch thy body beautiful, + 

And thou that art of all the earth most fair + 

Shalt close thine eyes upon the shining air, + 

An unadorned gold urn to make full; + 

When that thou liest quietly inurn’d + 

In the dark bosom of the earth divine, + 

Being turned unto a heap of ashes fine, + 

For love of whose white face all men have burn’d; + 

Then in the earth, O beautiful white love, + 

Thy beauty shall not wholly end and cease, + 

When that thou art gone to endless peace; + 

Though all things beneath the sky above + 

Fade away, it knoweth not to die, + 

But abideth changeless endlessly. + 
