Sonnet: All Things Tend To Equalize On Earth

All things tend to equalize in this world, Like water flowing down the gradient; Prince becoming pauper: hot turning cold, Anger becomes a cool temperament! Like the river-water flowing to sea, Most virtues may become vices with time; Aristocracy meets commonality; A little known person becomes sublime. Metals turn salts; go back to stage of ore! All living things to soil, one day will go; Love turns hate: hate opens the loving door! A Rich man must one day, all wealth forego. All things tend to equalize in this world; Something that’s straight will turn one day quite curl’d.
