⁴ For ^(A)a thousand years in your sight
    are but as ^(B)yesterday when it is past,
    or as ^(C)a watch in the night.
⁵ You ^(D)sweep them away as with a flood; they are like ^(E)a dream,
    like ^(F)grass that is renewed in the morning:
⁶ in ^(G)the morning it flourishes and is renewed;
    in the evening it ^(H)fades and ^(I)withers.
