THE HOUR-GLASS

And they are lonely that must keep the watch.

Wise Man

And whither shall I go when I am dead?

Angel

You have denied there is a purgatory,
Therefore that gate is closed; you have denied
There is a heaven, and so that gate is closed.

Wise Man

Angel

Hell is the place of those who have denied;
They find there what they planted and what dug,
