Retold by Paul Pleiss
O world! O life! O time!
On whose last steps Jarod Burton doth climb,
Trembling at that where he had stood 66ft 6in before;
When will return the glory of your prime?
No more—Oh, never more!
Out of the day and night
A joy has taken flight;
Fresh spring, and summer, and winter hoar,
Move my faint heart with grief, but with delight
No more—Oh, never more!
