Thus passeth, in the passing of a day,
The flower and verdure of this life of ours,
Nor because April cometh back, and May,
Shall life put forth again her buds and flowers.

Torquato Tasso

So when the draught we give to the sick child,
The vessel's edge we touch with syrup sweet;
Cheated, he swift drinks down the bitter brew,
And from the cheat receives his life anew.
