A lifetimes teaching grammar come to this
returned as member for Necropolis !

An Epigram Written by Palladas of Alexandria,4th Century AD

Lifes an ocean crossing where winds howl
and the sea comes at us wasve after wave.

With Fortune our pilot,weather fair or foul,
all alike drop anchor in the grave.

An Epigram Written by Palladas of Alexandria,4th Century AD

Born naked, buried naked, so why the fuss ?
All life leads to that first nakedness.

An Epigram Written by Palladas of Alexandria,4th Century AD

God's philosophicaland so can wait
for the blasphememer and the reprbate

He calmly chalks their crimes up on his slate.

An Epigram Written by Palladas of Alexandria,4th Century AD

So,Miser Moneybags,youre loaded?So?
You'll never take it with you when you go.

You've made your pile,but squandered time.Grown old
you can't gloat over age like hoared gold.
