He nothing common...

He nothing common did or mean
Upon that memorable scene,
But with his keener eye
The axe's edge did try.

Source: Referring to the execution of Charles I. An Horatian Ode upon Cromwell's Return from Ireland.
-- Andrew Marvell, (Mar 31 1621-1678), English poet; His political reputation overshadowed his poetry until the 20th C; considered to be one of the best secular metaphysical poets.
