Answer 2

Answer:

here's ur answer dude

Explanation:

The poem "Death the Leveller" by James Shirley tells of the futility of the trappings of human pride in the face of death, because death comes to all. Shirley points out that genealogy, the country where someone is born, and victory and honors in battle will not save a person from death. He writes that heroes should not brag anymore about their "mighty deeds" and that only the "actions of the just smell sweet and blossom in the dust." In other words, only the actions of just people will be remembered and appreciated after death.
