Answer:

Since then - 'tis Centuries - and yet

Feels shorter than the Day

Explanation:

A paradox is a self-contradictory statement to one's investigation that was found true. So an example would be save money by spending it. This is not the same as saving money TO spend it, because you're doing it for a reason. Saving money by spending would mean that you're not actually saving money, therefore you contradict yourself.

I chose these lines because they author is basically saying that it's been centuries since then, but it actually feels like it's been a shorter period.

The main idea behind it is that life is short and that we need to laugh and be happy while we have time and not focus on negative things because life is short. If life hits you in the teeth there's no reason to be depressed forever about it, just laugh and be happy and keep moving on.
