MOTTOES FOR SUN DIALS.
By the Rev. W. Lisle Bowles.
MORNING SUN.—Tempus volat.
OH! early passenger, look up—be wise,
And think how, night and day, TIME ONWARD
FLIES.
NOON.—Dum tempus habemus, operemur bonum.
Life steals away—this hour, oh man, is lent thee,
Patient to "WORK THE WORK OF HIM WHO SENT
THEE."
SETTING SUN.—Redibo, tu nunquam.
Haste, traveller, the sun is sinking now—
He shall return again—but never thou.
