Fond youth is a bubble blown up with breath
Fond youth is a bubble blown up with breath
whose wit is weakness, whose wage is death,
whose wit is weakness, whose wage is death,
whose way is wilderness, whose inn penance;
whose way is wilderness, whose inn penance;
and stoop gallant age, the host of grievance.
and stoop gallant age, the host of grievance.}}

whose wit is weakness, whose wage is death,
