First Line: Let us now take time, and play
Last Line: No return from thence we have.
Subject(s): Carpe Diem


Let us now take time, and play,
Love, and live here while we may;
Drink rich wine; and make good cheere,
While we have our being here:
For, once dead, and laid i'th grave,
No return from thence we have.
