“You are old, Father William, the young man cried,
And life must be hastening away;
You are cheerful, and love to converse upon death:
Now tell me the reason, I pray.
I am cheerful, young man, Father William replied;
Let the cause thy attention engage;
In the days of my youth I remembered my God,
And He hath not forgotten my age.”
—Robert Southey (17741843)
