Youthfulness is of the mind

Until the body begins to fail the mind

If you crack the bones as youth

You shall suck marrows when you have no tooth

Pour water ahead of you with strength of youth

That you may walk on cool grounds in old age

Remember to serve the Lord in your youth

That you may eat of his goodness in your hoary days

What you shall regret in your old days

Are what you did not do as youth
