Which two lines in this excerpt from the play Everyman show that Everyman is reluctant to go with Death and wants to delay the t
ime of his final journey? Alas, shall I have no longer respite?
I may say Death giveth no warning:
(To think on thee, it maketh my heart sick)
For all unready is my book of reckoning.
(But twelve year and I might have abiding,)
My counting book I would make so clear,
That my reckoning I should not need to fear.
(Wherefore, Death, I pray thee, for God's mercy,)
(Spare me till I be provided of remedy.)
