Poem by Thomas Moore

From “The Odes of Anacreon”. Ode 78

When Cupid sees how thickly now,
The snows of Time fall o’er my brow,
Upon his wing of golden light.
He passes with an eaglet's flight,
And flitting onward seems to say,
“Fare thee well, thou’st had thy day!

1. To-Day, Dearest! Is Ours
2. Oft, When the Watching Stars Grow Pale
3. From “The Odes of Anacreon”. Ode 24
4. From “The Odes of Anacreon”. Ode 60
5. From “The Odes of Anacreon”. Ode 69
