241But now the King retires him to his peace,
    
A peace much like a feeble sickman's sleep,
    
(Wherein his waking pains do never cease
    
Though seeming rest his closed eyes doth keep)
    
For O, no peace could ever so release
    
His intricate turmoils, and sorrows deep,
    
But that his cares kept waking all his life
    
Continue on till death conclude the strife.
