FAME. - ZaunköniG - 06.05.2009 FAME. Dante, how many, long ere half their age, Have thought them in a gloomy wood, like thee, Astray from the true path; that others see, And follow, therefore, in the golden page Of Hope inscribed. But some their battle wage Then haughtier 'gainst oblivion, and shall be As thou by Virgil onward led, or he That over Lethe bore the Sibyl's gage : One waits their coming; not with tongues and eyes, As the vain-glorious dream, and her vague throne Would fill, though 'twere the winds and stars of heaven; But oft she foils, still points to high emprise, And they shall know not, till their wrestling's done, It is an angel, with whom they have striven. |
