NOW Antoninus, in a smiling age, / Counts of his life the fifteenth finished stage.

The rounded days and the safe years he sees, / Nor fears death's water mounting round his knees.

To him remembering not one day is sad, / Not one but that its memory makes him glad.

So good men lengthen life; and to recall / The past is to have twice enjoyed it all.
