“He sets a thief to guard his purse
Who trusts a dial with his hours”
Robertson Davies (1913–1995) Canadian journalist, playwright, professor, critic, and novelist
The Golden Ass (1999)
Context: He sets a thief to guard his purse
Who trusts a dial with his hours
Or bids a sand-glass bleed away his nights,
His days, his loves, his pleasures and his powers.
The burthen of his years
Is Time's soft footfall, Time's soft
Falling
Through his joys and tears.
