When youth and summer-time are gone,

And age puts quiet garlands on,

And in the speculative eye

The fires of emulation die,

But as to-day our time shall be

Trembling upon eternity,

While, still inconstant in debate,

We shall on revelation wait,

And age as youth will daily plan

The sailing of the caravan.
