To the Virgins, To Make much of Time
Gather ye rose-buds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today,
Tomorrow will be dying.

The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he is to setting.

When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst

And while you may, go marry;
For having lost but once your prime,
You may for ever tarry. — Robert Herrick
