First Line: Death, tho I see him not, is near
Last Line: But bargains: those he will not strike.
Subject(s): Old Age
Death, tho I see him not, is near
And grudges me my eightieth year.
Now, I would give him all these last
For one that fifty have run past.
Ah! he strikes all things, all alike,
But bargains: those he will not strike.
