"For our time is as the passing of a shadow, and there is no going back of our end: for it is fast sealed, and no man returneth."
W kontekście
3Which being put out, our body shall be ashes, and our spirit shall be poured abroad as soft air, and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist, which is driven away by the beams of the sun, and overpowered with the heat thereof:
4And our name in time shall be forgotten, and no man shall have any remembrance of our works.
5For our time is as the passing of a shadow, and there is no going back of our end: for it is fast sealed, and no man returneth.
6Come therefore, and let us enjoy the good things that are present, and let us speedily use the creatures as in youth.
7Let us fill ourselves with costly wine, and ointments: and let not the flower of the time pass by us.
