Ample make this bed.
Make this bed with awe;
In it wait till judgment break
Excellent and fair.
Be its mattress straight,
Be its pillow round;
Let no sunrise' yellow noise
Interrupt this ground.

Please don't get me wrong because I love the poem. But I guess the poet was inspired by visions of death when viewing this bed.
