Wisdom 2:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ Come therefore, and let us enjoy the good things that are present, and let us speedily use the creatures as in youth.

⁷ Let us fill ourselves with costly wine, and ointments: and let not the flower of the time pass by us.

⁸ Let us crown ourselves with roses, before they be withered: let no meadow escape our riot.
