Man's Life Is Like Unto A Winter's Day,-- Some Break Their Fast And So Depart Away

HomeFortune CookiesMiscellaneous Collections

Man's life is like unto a winter's day,--
Some break their fast and so depart away;
Others stay dinner, then depart full fed;
The longest age but sups and goes to bed.
O reader, then behold and see!
As we are now, so must you be.
-- Joseph Henshaw (-1678)
-- Horae Sucissive (1631)
