           Even such is Time
        -- Sir Walter Ralegh --


    Even such is Time, that takes in trust
      Our youth, our joys, our all we have
    And pays us but with earth and dust;
      Who, in the dark and silent grave,
    When we have wandered all our ways,
    Shuts up the story of our days;
    But from this earth, this grave, this dust,
    My God shall raise me up, I trust.
