fancy rule
Don’t tell me of to-morrow,There is much to do to-day,That can never be accomplished,If we throw the hours away.Every moment has its duty—Who the future can foretell?Then why put off till to-morrow,What to-day can do as well?

Who the future can foretell?
Then why put off till to-morrow,
What to-day can do as well?
