AN EXTEMPORE ADDRESS TO TIME.
Always passing, never gone,Doing what is never done;
Always going, yet not past,
Ever foremost, yet the last.
How is this! pray tell me Time,
If to speak it be no crime?
“Herein then the secret lies,
If you really would be wise:
Use me, and you'll ever find
Time and you are of a mind.”
