Upon having wine, we invite each other to savour;

Upon having meat, we call on each other to enjoy.

In the next world we all sooner or later will arrive;

Meanwhile, being all young and bold and strong,

We try to exert ourselves to the best of our limit. . .

The necklace of gems is iridescent only a while;

The golden chains are not what will decorate for

A long time. Once the famously celebrated couple

Of Mr. and Mrs. Goldsmith passed on, they were

Never heard of again. At that, someone fairly says

That this is the coarse truth of such a beautiful

But impermanent world. Alas, no grounds to argue.
