TIME; QUATRAIN by THOMAS STEPHENS COLLIER

First Line: TIME HAS NO FLIGHT - 'TIS WE WHO SPEED ALONG
Last Line: AND FELT THE SWIFTLY PASSING FEET OF MEN.

TIME has no flight -- 't is we who speed along;
The days and nights are but the same as when
The earth awoke with the first rush of song,
And felt the swiftly passing feet of men.
