[00:29.38] Why are you standing here all alone
[00:31.42] In front of the gates
[00:33.09] And moaning to yourself over your misfortune
[01:03.15] Why are you standing here
[01:04.52] Alone in front of the gates
[01:12.14]
[02:06.74] When the wars are done
[02:08.36] The poet speaks of sweet persuasiveness
[02:11.25] And the waste and misery that follow great conflicts
[02:14.17] And pleads for tranquil times
[02:36.16] Two loves I have of comfort and despair
[02:39.33] Which like two spirits do suggest me still
[02:42.68] The better angel is a man right fair
[02:45.63] The worser spirit a woman coloured ill
[03:24.82] How many make the hour full complete;
[03:27.60] How many hours bring about the day;
[03:29.64] How many days will finish up the year;
[03:31.88] How many years a mortal man may live
[03:35.25] When this is known then to divide the times:
[03:38.42] So many hours must I contemplate;
[03:41.85] So many hours must I sport myself;
[03:44.70] So many days my eyes have been with young;
[03:48.14] So many weeks there the poor fools will lean:
[03:51.71] So many years there I shall shear the fleece:
[03:55.20] So minutes hours days months and years
[03:58.67] Passed over to the end they were created
[04:01.76] Would bring white hairs unto a quiet grave
[04:05.41] Ah what a life were this
[04:08.32] How sweet this
[04:10.65] How lovely
