Studies of the Greek Poets (Vol 2 of 2)

Note 209 — Chapter XXI · THE ANTHOLOGY.

Reading edition

Drink and be merry. What the morrow brings No mortal knoweth: wherefore toil or run? Spend while thou mayst, eat, fix on present things Thy hopes and wishes: life and death are one. One moment: grasp life's goods; to thee they fall: Dead, thou hast nothing, and another all.

Goldwin Smith.
