TEXT_EXPL_XML <p>Five Termes, there be, which five, I doe apply<lb/>
                                To all, that was, and is, and, shall be done.<lb/>
                                The first, and last, is that Eternitie,<lb/>
                                Which, neither shall have End, nor, was begunne.<lb/>
                                Beginning, is the next ; which, is a space<lb/>
                                (Or moment rather) scarce imaginarie,<lb/>
                                Made, when the first Materiall, formed was;<lb/>
                                And, then, forbidden, longer time to tarry.<lb/>
                                Time entred, when, Beginning had an Ending,<lb/>
                                And, is a Progresse, all the workes of Nature,<lb/>
                                Within the circuit of it, comprehending,<lb/>
                                Ev'n till the period, of the Outward-creature.<lb/>
                                End, is the fourth, of those five Termes I meane;<lb/>
                                (As briefe, as was Beginning ) and, ordayned,<lb/>
                                To set the last of moments, to that Scaene,<lb/>
                                Which, on this Worlds wide Stage, is entertayned.<lb/>
                                The fifth, we Everlasting, fitly, call;<lb/>
                                For, though, it once begunne, yet, shall it never<lb/>
                                Admit, of any future-end, at all;<lb/>
                                But, be extended onward, still, for ever.<lb/>
                                The knowledge of these Termes, and of what actions,<lb/>
                                To each of them belongs, would set an end,<lb/>
                                To many Controversies, and Distractions,<lb/>
                                Which doe so many trouble, and offend.<lb/>
                                Time 's nature, by the Fading-flowre, appeares;<lb/>
                                Which, is a Type, of Transitory things:<lb/>
                                The Circled-snake, Eternitie declares;<lb/>
                                Within whose Round, each fading Creature, springs.<lb/>
                                Some Riddles more, to utter, I intended,<lb/>
                                But, lo; a sudden stop, my words have ended.
