Anon)
What is life and all its pride, If love and pleasure be denied? Snatch me hence ye fates whene'er The am'rous bliss I cease to share. O let us crop each fragrant flow'r While youth and vigour give us pow'r; For frozen age will soon destroy The pow'r to give and take a joy. | | |
| Garret Wesley, 1st Earl of Mornington (1735 - 1781)
