Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Selected Poetry
Hardly the place of such antiquity, Or note of those great Monarchies we find Only a fading verbal memory, And empty name in writ is left behind But when his second life and glory fades, And sinks at length in Time's obscurer shades, A second fall succeeds, and double death invades.
