Check in the clasped hands of time and
Find in melted drips, tips to mysteries
At the feet of time is the end of life
Yet, time breathes life eternal
Time is the tears that greet our smiles
In time is the smile that begot our tears
Time has the honour of the abased
In time is the fall of the proud
Let Rose give time to them that bring roses
And see if they be not solanum in rose guise
Give time to them that profess hate
And see interest make haters relate
For whether the earth be vacant or tenanted
Time will dismiss our gathering
Time is the doctor for all ailments
Time is the specialist of no specialty
Time, apothecary ever lives!
