Races of living things, glorious in strength,
And perish, as the quickening breath of God

“Every new stroke of civilization has cost the lives of countless brave men, who have fallen defeated by the “dragon,” in their efforts to win the apples of the Hesperides, or the fleece of gold.

—D.H. (David Herbert)
