    Once at a potent leader's voice I stayed;
    Once I went back when a good monarch prayed;
    Mortals, howe'er we grieve, howe'er deplore,
    The flying shadow will return no more.

Time is
Too Slow for those who Wait,
Too Swift for those who Fear,
Too Long for those who Grieve,
Too Short for those who Rejoice;
But for those who Love,
Time is not.

"Horas non numero nisi serenas."
There stands in the garden of old St. Mark
A sun dial quaint and gray.
It takes no heed of the hours which in dark
Pass o'er it day by day.
It has stood for ages amid the flowers
In that land of sky and song.
"I number none but the cloudless hours,"
Its motto the live day long.

I go away and come again each day,
But thou shalt go away and ne'er return.

But thou shalt go away and ne'er return.
