VERSES
THE END Victorious men of earth, no more Proclaim how’ wide your empires are; Though you bind on every shore, And your triumphs reach as far As night or day, Yet you, proud monarchs, must obey And mingle with forgotten ashes, when Death calls ye to the crowd of common men. —James Shirley.
FOR THE CONFLICT Give unto me, made lowly wise, The spirit of self-sacrifice; The confidence reason give; And in the light of truth, thy Bondman, let me live! —Wordsworth.
