The changing Seafons, and the Hours that fly,And ftill fucceeding, wear away the Day,Kindly forewarn us, that we muft decay, Tell us that we are mortal, and muft die. Each Year, the Winter by the Spring we findSucceeded is, and Summer next takes place ;Then fruitful Autumn comes with fmiling Face, Then Winter purling Streams in Ice does bind. The pleafing Years of Life are quickly gone, -\And helplefs Age, and fwift Decay comes on, then remorfelefs Death oertakes us foon. j A View of Human Life. 173.

Time ftill the different Seafons brings,, And regularly changes things ; The Sun walking his confiant Round, Renews the Days, the Months, and Years ;The Fields with fragrant Flowers are crownd, And every Tree frefh Bloffoms wears :But with us Mortals tis not fo ;When Fate our Lives does end* we goTo endlefs Night, and gloomy Shades below. i Yy 174 The Doltrine of MORALITY; or, The Explanation of the Twenty-fifth Picture* Tous les Siècles ont eu leurs Vices.
