Wis 2:7 | CPDV | STEP | Let us indulge ourselves with costly wine and ointments, and let no flower of youth pass us by.

Wisdom of Solomon 2:7

7 Let us indulge ourselves with costly wine and ointments, and let no flower of youth pass us by. ^{▼▼2:7Flos temporis uses flower metaphorically, to refer to human persons, so the translation is flower of youth, rather than flower of time. Here and in the subsequent verses the misuse of sexuality is implied.(Conte)}
