At their everlasting tasks, but biology is as a flower that cometh in a day and on the morrow is cut down.

At their everlasting tasks, but biology is as a flower that cometh in a day and on the morrow is cut down.

At their everlasting tasks, but biology is as a flower that cometh in a day and on the morrow is cut down.

At their everlasting tasks, but biology is as a flower that cometh in a day and on the morrow is cut down.

At their everlasting tasks, but biology is as a flower that cometh in a day and on the morrow is cut down.
