For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass.

My tongue, every atom of my

Born here of parents born here from parents the same, and their parents the same,
I, now thirty-seven years old in perfect health begin,
Hoping to cease not till death.

To the virgins, to make much of time
Gather
ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still
a-flying;
And this same flower that
smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.
The glorious lamp of
heaven the sun,
The higher he's
a-getting,
The sooner will his race
be run,
And nearer he's to
setting.
That age is best which is
the first,
When youth and blood are
warmer;
But being spent, the
worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.
Then be not coy, but use
your time,
And, while ye may, go marry;
For, having lost but once
your
prime,
You may forever tarry.

If they be two, they are two so
As stiff twin compasses are two;
Thy soul, the fixed foot, makes no show
To move, but doth, if the other do.
And though it in the center sit,
Yet when the other far doth roam,
It leans and hearkens after it,
And grows erect, as that comes home.
