The inference that can be drawn from these lines of Feste's song in Shakespeare's <em>Twelfth Night</em> is that they are making reference to life’s unpredictability and; therefore, they urge people to enjoy their youth.

This excerpt from <em>Twelfth Night</em>, a comedy written by Shakespeare, is part of what Feste sings after Sir Toby and Sir Andre Agueecheeck ask him to sing a love song. <u>He is telling lovers not to lose time because life is unpredictable</u>; in other words, <u>no one knows what will happen tomorrow</u> ("what's to come is still unsure"). Moreover, <u>he is saying that youth will not last forever. For that reason, he advises lovers to make the most out of the present</u> ("Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty"). Therefore, the idea expressed in this excerpt is closely connected to the theme of <em>carpe diem</em>, which means "seize the day".
