Time shall unfold what plaited cunning hides: Who cover faults, at last shame them derides.
Haste thee, Nymph, and bring with thee Jest, and youthful Jollity, Quips, and Cranks, and wanton Wiles, Nods, and Becks, and wreathed Smiles, Such as hang on Hebe's cheek, And love to live in dimple sleek; Sport that wrinkled Care derides, And Laughter holding both his sides.
Reflect, ere you spurn me, that youth at his sides Wears wings; and once gone, all pursuit he derides.
