REMAIN, ah not in youth alone! 
   --Tho' youth, where you are, long will stay-- 
But when my summer days are gone, 
   And my autumnal haste away. 
'Can I be always by your side?' 
   No; but the hours you can, you must, 
Nor rise at Death's approaching stride, 
   Nor go when dust is gone to dust.
