"The Bishop Orders His Tomb at Saint Praxed's Church," Robert Browning, p.913

Most likely passage for the test:

Vanity, saith the preacher, vanity!
Draw round my bedL is Anselm keeping back?
Nephews--sons mine ... ah God, I know not! Well--
She, men would have to be your mother once,
Old Gandolf envied me, so fair was she!
What's done is done, and she is dead besides,
Dead long ago, and I am Bishop since,
And as she died so much we die ourselves,
And thence ye may perceive the world's a dream.

Context: The bishop lays on his death bed and is trying to make elaborate plans for his tomb. Everything about his request is covered in irony as he preaches against vanity. He desperately wants to one up his rival, the bishop who preceded him: Gandalf. To secure his ornate tomb, he stole gems and buried them. He gives his sons directions to uncover the gems. He tries to bribe them by promising to give them his fancy villas in Frascati. Ultimately, the bishop is disappointed and resigns that he will not one-up Gandalf with his tomb, but at least Gandalf envied him for his woman.
