There's time to wake and time to sleep.

There's time TO give and tins to keep,

And tho form Is still on the stu white bed

Make haste to lead where the weary tread
The good we do must be done before
The stars are out-and the night Is nigh,
Wherein we never may hush a sigh.
Some day the hands 20 quick to cares
Win clasp each other no more; some night
