But at my back I always hear
Time's winged chariot hurrying near;
And yonder all before us lie
Deserts of vast eternity.
(Andrew Marvell, “To His Coy Mistress”)
These lines highlight the fleeting nature of life. The author argues that he can hear the "winged chariot" of time, meaning he can feel time passing, and "hurrying near." He knows that before us, there lies a desert of eternity. This is likely to refer to death. He believes that death is fast approaching, and that after death, lies an eternity.

Holiday Diary: Monday We (arrived) in the middle of a thunderstorm at one in the morning. I (took) the tent out of the car and (tried) to pitch, only to then (realised) that we had forgotten the pegs. The kids’ faces (stared) at me through the car’s streaked windows as the dogs sit beside them. Three-quarters of an hour later I finally (managed) to wake the site’s shop owner, bought some spare pegs and got us all under canvas. The forecast, typically, is for rain all week. Good old summer!
