Spreads the ice sheet on the shaven lawn;
Signing an annual permit for the frost....”

For some conspiracy,
And crazy rascals rage their fill
At human tyranny;
My contemplations are of Time....”

“Sleep shall neither night nor day
Hang upon his penthouse lid;
He shall live a man forbid;
Weary sev’n-nights, nine times nine,
Shall he dwindle, peak and pine;
Though his bark cannot be lost,
Yet it shall be tempest-tossed.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
