The Latin poem. Horace, might well have been the first. It occurs in one of his odes (7, I think).

"Dum loquimur, fugerit invida

Aetas: carpe diem, quam minimum credula poster."

The notion of seizing the day and enjoying time's transient pleasures was much to the liking, not of the Stoics, but the Epicureans.
