Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Edward Vaughan Kenealy, Vol. 3

This I can give thee, on thy temples wreathing Immortal honour, glory ne'er to end 3 A name, unto all future times bequeathing A bright example, guiding foe and friend 3 A shining place in history - a splendour Out-dazzling Kings' - the sunshine drowns the star A name to which all time its meed shall render, Which Change can ne'er destroy, nor Folly mar.

She ceased, and I was left alone, unguided, A little cradled child, to choose between Power and Fame - alas alas divided Why should these mighty goddesses be seen? Why should not Fame and Power, like smiling Graces, Wander along the earth to woo and win '4 Why should not he who seeks the bright embraces Of Power, gain them but by aid of Sin!
