Passage 2. Robert Herrick, “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time”

Gather ye rose-buds while ye may:

Old Time is still a-fl ying;

And this same fl ower that smiles to-day,

To-morrow will be dying.

Th e glorious lamp of heaven, the Sun,

Th e higher he’s a-getting,

Th e sooner will his race be run,

And nearer he’s to setting.

Th at age is best, which is the fi rst,

When youth and blood are warmer;

But being spent, the worse, and worst

Times, still succeed the former.

—Th en be not coy, but use your time,

And while ye may, go marry;

For having lost but once your prime,

You may for ever tarry.
