Death and kingship are the main themes of this poem. It shows us how much power Death has over all of us, including powerful kings. Kings are just as mortal as everyone else. No matter how stately and powerful they might seem, they ultimately submit to Death. Even kings cannot escape death. Kings feel the same things as their subjects do, and are just as mortal and ordinary as them in reality.
