His ashes in a peaceful urn shall rest, His name a great example stands to show How strangely high endeavours may be blest, Where piety and valour jointly go.

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "His ashes in a peaceful urn shall rest, His name a great example stands to show How strangely high endeavours may be blest, Where piety and valour jointly go." in the context of "John Dryden, Heroic Stanzas on the death of Oliver Cromwell, written after his funeral (1658), XXXVII" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
