    The old world stands serenely behind the new, as one mountain yonder towers behind another, more dim and distant. Rome imposes her story still upon this late generation.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Sad mortals! thus the gods still plague you!
    He lost his labor, I my jest;
    For he was drowned, and I’ve the ague.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
