4
And our name shall be forgotten in time, and no man shall have our works in remembrance; and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist that is driven away with the beams of the sun, and overcome with the heat thereof.
5
For our time is a very shadow that passeth away, and after our end there is no returning; for it is sealed fast, so that no man cometh again.
6
"Come on, therefore, let us enjoy the good things that are present; and let us speedily use the creation as in youth.
7
Let us fill ourselves with costly wine and ointments; and let no flower of the spring pass by us.
8
Let us crown ourselves with rosebuds before they be withered.
