Poetry Extract and Error Correction

When I do count the clock that tells the time, And see the brave day sunk in his sunset, When I behold the violet past prime, And smell the air that gives sweet death to sultans, I think of thee— And then my state, like to a little kingdom, Seems to decay; and all the flesh is dead that lives and looks on death. O, no! It is not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door; but 'tis enough, 'twill serve. Ask me no more.
