    "Gather ye Rose-buds while ye may,
    Old Time is still a-flying:
    And this same flower that smiles to day,
    To morrow will be dying."
    Robert Herrick, To the Virgins, To Make Much of Time

  5. A quotation from Robert Herrick

    ’Twixt kings and tyrants there’s this difference known:
    Kings seek their subjects’ good; tyrants their own.

  10. Riddle-Poem:

    Episcopal and Cavalier,
    The Sons of Ben sing loud and clear,
    Advising youth: make much of time.
    We share their use of form and rhyme
    But lean toward Presbyterianism.
    Rejecting war and civil schism,
    We bring about their due defeat
    By Metaphysical Conceit.

    Who are we, and who are they?
