| Whether we wake or we sleep,
Whether we carol or weep,
The Sun with his Planets in chime,
Marketh the going of Time.

like tomorrow.

not know.

you too.

Lord Byron

something new... but who can understand and measure its
sharp breath, its mystery and its design?

Who forces time is pushed back by time; who
yields to time finds time on his side.

The flower that you hold in your hands was
born today and already it is as old as you are.

It strikes! one, two,
Three, four, five, six. Enough, enough, dear watch,
Thy pulse hath beat enough. Now sleep and rest;
Would thou could'st make the time to do so too;
I'll wind thee up no more.
Ben Jonson
