    Gather ye rosebuds while ye may:

    Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 6:25.26.

    Gather ye rosebuds while ye may:
    Old Time is still a-flying;
    And this same flower that smiles today,
    Tomorrow will be dying.
