The poet refers to the time being ‘sluttish’ as here it means that the rhyme written in the praise of the ruler would surpass all sorts of time, good or bad, angelic or evil. Sluttish refers to unhygienic or unhealthy times.

Time is sluttish because it is unreliable and careless and it cares for no individual it is immoral and will pass. Here time is personifide

The poet refers to Time as sluttish because it spoils the marbled or gilded monuments. It discolors them, spoils them and ruins them gradually through its various agents or forces. These agents are like air, rain, natural vegetation, etc.

Being materialistic entities statues and glided monuments are inevitable to decline and destroy. Nothing in the world can escape the cruel hand of time. So do the monuments and statues. The sluttish time discolours them, spoils them and destroys them overpowering the assay of being immortalized.
