Right outta the bible for ya! Hope that this helps! :) :)
And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems on its horns and blasphemous names on its heads. And the beast that I saw was like a leopard; its feet were like a bear's, and its mouth was like a lion's mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority. One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast. And they worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it?” And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months. It opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven. Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them. And authority was given it over every tribe and people and language and nation, and all who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain. Rev 12:8 - 13:8

THE MEETING POOL
BY RUSKIN BOND
The Meeting Pool by Ruskin Bond is considered as one of the greatest pieces for describing the ravages of time. It describes that how the requirements and necessities of an individual changes by the passage of time. It also depicts that the time is an oblivious enimity and time is tyrant.
It says that the time is omnidestructive. Time destroys everything- the relation,the friendship,the necessities,the immortality of royals ,etc.
RAVAGES OF TIME ACCORDING TO RUSKIN BOND:-
THE MEETING POOL deals with three friends. The friends were chums and played a lot in their childhood.Among them was the narrator-BUSTY. He found a pool and made his friends acquinted with the presence of the secret pool . All of them went there and played a lot.They spent time fishing,swimming and bull riding. Their childhood revolved around the pool and they decided to meet back after 10 years on 5th april 1964.
Busty kept his promise and was present on the scheduled day. But his friend did not come. He was very disappointed and realised that everything changes with respect of time. Time destroys everything and diverts the necessities and requirements of an individual.
Busty then finds another pool and saw some children playing there. He recalls his childhood and his hear fills with sorrow and a dismal expression strikes his face. He feels isolated and feels very bad. He blames time for this. He says that the time is tyrant and because of it his friends forgot him.
THE CONCLUSION :-
TIME IS TYRANT . IT DESTROYS EVERYTHING. NOTHING CAN WITHSTAND THE WRATH OF TIME. THE RAVAGES OF TIME ARE VERY DESTRUCTIVE. IT DESTROYS ALL THE MEMORY AND CLEARS THE PRESENCE OF ALL. IT HAS THE POWER TO WASH AWAY ALL THE LOVE AND AFFECTION AND TO MAKE AN INDIVIDUAL FORGET SOMETHING OR SOMEONE. TIME IS THE METAPHORICAL REPRESENTATION OF DESTRUCTION AND FORGETFULNESS. THE NEEDS AND WANTS ARE CHANGED BY TIME .
