THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 22 by OMAR KHAYYAM

First Line: FOR SOME WE LOVED, THE LOVELIEST AND THE BEST
Last Line: AND ONE BY ONE CREPT SILENTLY TO REST.
Subject(s): LIFE CHANGE EVENTS; TIME;
For some we loved, the loveliest and the best
That from his Vintage rolling Time hath prest,
Have drunk their Cup a Round or two before,
And one by one crept silently to rest.
