Go then, infatuate! where the festive hall, + 

The curious board, the oblivious wine invite; + 

Speed with obsequious haste at Pleasure’s call, + 

And with thy revels scare the far-spent night. + 

Joy thee, that clearer dawn upon thy sight + 

The gates of death;⁠—and pride thee in thy sum + 

Of guilty years, and thy increasing white + 

Of locks; in age untimely frolicksome, + 

Make much of thy brief span, few years are yet to come! + 
