The never altered circuit of his fate,
Bringing twelve peers as witness
Both to his starry rise and starry fall.”

Drew the firm lines of Fate and Life,
And brought Olympian wisdom down
To court and mar, to gown and town,
Stooping, his finger wrote in clay
The open secret of to-day.”

For it matters not how small the beginning may seem to be: what is once well done is done forever.”
