And what hy mortals in this world is brought In Timers greai periods shall return to nought ;T hat fairest states have fatal nights and days. I know that all the Muses heavenly lays, With toil of sprite which are so dearly bought As idle sounds, of few or none are sought; That there is nothing lighter than vain praise, I know frail Beauty slike the purple flower, To which one mom oft birth and death affords; That Love a jarring is of mind accords, Wliere sense and will bring under reasons power :K now what I list, this all can not me move. But that, alas, I both must write and love, W. Drummond.

With many of the author's own reflections interspersed, this book gives an authentic glimpse into the power of verse to capture the complex and contradictory nature of our humanity.
