English text

On fragrant myrtles let me lie,
And, Love, my slave, the wine supply.
Too soon we seek the Stygian gloom;
Time flies, and since to dust we go,
Why idly bid the incense flow,
And spill the juice upon the tomb?
Ah! rather let me quaff the wine,
And bid the rose my brow entwine,
While youth, while health, the bosom warms.
Then prithee, Love, delight my heart,
Ere death despatch his certain dart,
And bring a Hebe to my arms.
