Oracle Text

Three winters spent and full,
your art and letters honed and fine;
yet come to the end of it,
it, too, has turned to ice;
turn back in haste, in haste—
and do not wreck the road ahead.

There may be a problem in how you're going about what you ask; you should change course at once and make other arrangements.
