Poem by William Creech

To A Gentleman Who Complained Of Having Lost His Gold Watch

Fret not, my friend, or peevish say
    Your fate is worse than common;
For Gold takes wings and flies away,
    And Time will stay for no man.

1. To the Author of the Essay on Nothing, Who Was Remarkably Thin and Slender
2. A Receipt For Happiness
