ToDAY's POEM
GATHER We ROSES ]"

Love in thy youth, fair maid; be wise
Old Time will make thee colder.
And though each morning new arise
Yet we each day grow older.
Thou as heaven art fair and young,
Thine eyes like twin stars shining.
But ere another day be sprung,
All these will be declining.
Then winter comes with all his fears
And all thy sweets shall borrow
Too late then wilt thou shower thy
tears,
And I too late shall sorrow.
Waiter Porter (1632).
