Let us roll all our strength and all Our sweetness up into one ball, And tear our pleasures with rough strife Thorough the iron gates of life Thus, though we cannot make our sun Stand still, yet we will make him run.

What wond'rous life is this I lead Ripe apples drop about my head The luscious clusters of the vine Upon my mouth do crush their wine The nectarine and curious peach, Into my hands themselves do reach Stumbling on melons, as I pass, Insnar'd with flow'rs, I fall on grass.
Andrew Marvell
To Love and Grief the fatal writ was 'signed;
(Those nobler weaknesses of human kind,
From which those powers that issued the decree,
Although immortal, found they were not free),
That they, to whom his breast still open lies,
In gentle passions should his death disguise:
And leave succeeding ages cause to mourn,
As long as Grief shall weep, or Love shall burn.
Andrew Marvell
