Old time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles read more

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles to-day,
To-morrow may be dying.

Will fortune never come with both hands full,
But write her fair words still in foulest letters?

And takes away the stomach-- such are the rich,
That have abundance, and enjoy it not.

Sighs wishes, wishes words, and words a letter.
