Ceased falling in the Figures glass; Down swept the scythe in his right hand.- The Old Man, shrieking brcathed his last. And as he died, Youth stood near And wept in silence o'er his corse. To him Time said ,-"All hail, New Year! In life and health and strength rejoice In Spring time, wreath thy brow with aow'rs; In Summer, weave leafy crown;- In Autumn, sigh heath naked how'rs;- In Winter, dying, lay thee down."
