"The Sunset Years of Samuel Shy" by Ogden Nash (poetry)

Parcae means fate. The reference to Jenny is an in-joke, a charming poem by Leigh Hunt: Jenny kissed me when we met, Jumping from the chair she sat in. Time, you thief! who love to get Sweets into your list, put that in. Say I'm weary, say I'm sad; Say that health and wealth have missed me; Say I'm growing old, but add- Jenny kissed me!
