After summer merrily:
Merrily, merrily, shall I live now
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.

When forty winters shall besiege thy brow,
Thy youth’s proud livery so gazed on now,Will be a tattered weed of small worth held.Then being asked, where all thy beauty lies,Where all the treasure of thy lusty days,To say within thine own deep sunken eyes,Were an all-eating shame, and thriftless praise.How much more praise deserved thy beauty’s use,If thou couldst answer, ‘This fair…
