Go And Get Married
To the Virgins, to make much of Time
Gather your rosebuds while you may, the time is flying fast. The flower that smiles today, tomorrow will be dying.
Sun, the glorious lamp of the heaven, the higher it gets, the sooner it will end its race, nearer to its setting.
The best years of your life are when you are young and your blood is hot. With time, the best years will become worse, then worst.
Do not be coy. Use your best time if you will. Go and get married. If you waste your prime , you’ll be messing around all your life and will be sorry.
~Robert Herrick (1591-1674)
