Post 3.9.2013.18

Iphis:  In grief I ask: Why cannot mortals be
Twice young, then reach old age a second time?
If anything goes wrong at home, we right it
By afterthoughts; but not so with a life.
If youth and age came twice, a double life
would be our lot, and we could set things right
No matter what mistakes were made.
