Horloge! Dieu sinistre, effrayant, impassible
Dont le doigt nous menace et nous dit: Souviens-toi!
Les vibrantes Douleurs dans ton cœur plein d'effroi
Se planteront bientôt comme dans une cible

Le Plaisir vaporeux fuira vers l'horizon
Ainsi qu'une sylphide au fond de sa coulisse
Chaque instant te dévore un morceau du délice
A chaque homme accordé pour toute sa saison

Trois mille six cent fois par heure, la Seconde
Chuchote: Souviens-toi! — Rapide, avec sa voix
D'insecte, Maintenant dit: Je suis Autrefois
Et j'ai pompé ta vie avec ma trompe immonde!

Remember! Souviens-toi, prodigue Esto memor!
(Mon gosier de métal parle toutes les langues)
Les minutes, mortel folâtre, sont des gangues
Qu'il ne faut pas lâcher sans en extraire l'or!

Souviens-toi que le temps est un joueur avide
Qui gagne sans tricher, à tout coup! C'est la loi
Le jour décroit; la nuit augmente, souviens-toi!
Le gouffre a toujours soif; la clepsydre se vide

Tantôt sonnera l'heure où le divin Hasard
Où l'auguste Vertu, ton épouse encore vierge
Où le repentir même (oh! La dernière auberge!)
Où tout te dire: Meurs, vieux lâche! Il est trop tard!
