Wisdom 2:8

8 Let us crown ourselves with rosebuds before they be withered.

Wisdom 2:8 In-Context

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.
9 Let none of us go without his part of our voluptuousness; let us leave tokens of our joyfulness in every place; for this is our portion, and our lot is this.
10 Let us oppress the poor righteous man; let us not spare the widow, nor reverence the ancient gray hairs of the aged.
