-They gazed at one another, and fancied that each fleeting moment snatched away a charm, and left a deepening furrow where none had been before.
-The Water of Youth possessed merely a virtue more transient than that of wine.

-But the doctor's four friends had taught no such lesson to themselves.
-They resolved forthwith to make a pilgrimage to Florida, and quaff at morning, noon, and night, from the Fountain of Youth.
