. . . to a Lady extempore with a Nosegay. . .
  In these my dear you'll plainly see
  An emblem of mortality;
  They'll quickly fade and die away,
  And so may you--perhaps to-day!
  Seize then, O seize the present hour,
  Whilst 'tis yet within your power:
  Do as the angels do above,
  Devote the present time to love.
