Living, I despise what melancholy fatehas brought us wretches in these evil years.

Long before my birth time smiled and may again,for once there was, and yet will be, more joyful days.

But in this middle age time’s dregssweep around us, and we beneath a heavy

load of vice. Genius, virtue, glory nowhave gone, leaving chance and sloth to rule.

Shameful vision this! We must awake or die!
