Remember how long you have been putting these things off. Again and again you have been given the chance, and you have let it pass. It is time to understand the true nature of the world you are part of. And to understand that Lord and Governor of the world, from whom you yourself flowed like water from a spring. There is only a certain amount of time given to you. If you don't use it to calm the troubles of your soul, it will pass away and you with it, and never return.
Remember how long thou hast already put off these things, and how often a certain day and hour as it were, having been set unto thee by the gods, thou hast neglected it. It is high time for thee to understand the true nature both of the world, whereof thou art a part; and of that Lord and Governor of the world, from whom, as a channel from the spring, thou thyself didst flow: and that there is but a certain limit of time appointed unto thee, which if thou shalt not make use of to calm and allay the many distempers of thy soul, it will pass away and thou with it, and never after return.
