THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 7 by OMAR KHAYYAM

First Line: COME, FILL THE CUP, AND IN THE FIRE OF SPRING
Last Line: TO FLUTTER -- AND THE BIRD IS ON THE WING.
Subject(s): TIME;
Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring
Your Winter garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time has but a little way
To flutter -- and the Bird is on the Wing.
