ANOTHER.
[Thy life how frail! its moments, how they flee]
Thy life how frail! its moments, how they flee,How short thy time, how long eternity!
Would'st thou prepare, then muse thy latter end,
Make heav'n thy object, and its god thy friend!
So shall thy Hope, at least, be sure of this,
To live untainted, and then die in peace.
