Ode VII Book IV "Diffugere Nives. " ' I ^HE snows have melted : meadowlands and A trees Enlace Spring's gems of green : Earth has her youth renewed, and thro' gay leas The tamed floods glide serene : Now all the Nymphs and Graces naked dance, For chilly winds have passed, Hours, raveners of Day, as they advance, Warn Life, it may not last : Spring, breaking icy thrall, to summer yields, In turn, to Autumn, she : Then, orchards stripped, and reaped the harvest- fields, Comes Winter's penury : Re...newing Months, the Moon for change atones, And Nature's charms revives : But, Dust and Shadow, we poor mortal ones May not repeat our lives ; And tho' the Gods some few to-morrows grant, To greedy heirs' dismay, Pitiless Destiny will not recant, So, feast we, whilst we may ! Nor noble Birth, nor Virtues, Gifts of Mind, Can stay the summoned Breath . . . Life's severed threads e'en Gods may not re-bind, Nor break the chains of Death. 42 A Tender Chord "LTOW gay you are to-night ! * Bright as the yule-log's glow Your step seems just as light As sixty years ago !
