Serenely full, the epicure would say, 'Fate cannot harm
me, I have dined today.'
|
Live while you live, the epicure would say,And seize the pleasures of the present day;Live while you live, the sacred preacher cries,And give to God each moment as it flies.Lord, in my views, let both united be:I live in pleasure when I live to thee.
Philip Doddridge
