    His golden locks time hath to silver turned,
    O time too swift! O swiftness never ceasing!
    His youth 'gainst Time and Age hath ever spurned,
    But spurned in vain! Youth waneth by increasing.

How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out
of thy sleep?
Yet a little read more

How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out
of thy sleep?
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the
hands to sleep:
So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth,
and thy want as an armed man.
