But “carpe diem,” Juan, “carpe, carpe!”
To-morrow sees another race as gay
And transient, and devoured by the same harpy.
“Life’s a poor player,”—then “play out the play,
Ye villains!” and above all keep a sharp eye
Much less on what you do than what you say:
Be hypocritical, be cautious, be
Not what you seem, but always what you see.
