First, a Year; in the Spring is the youthful spring of our age, in the Summer is the aged time of our youth; in the Autumn is ⟨p. 7⟩the high noon, or middle of our age, when the Sun (which is our soul) rules in the Equinoctial line of our life; in the Winter we grow old and cold, the nips of frost strip the tree of our life, we fall into the grave, and the earth that nourished us, will then consume us. See what is man! a Spring of tears, a Summers dust, an Autumns care, a Winters woe: Read but this map, and you need travel no further to enquire of life.
