Pillared Arch and Sculptured Tower

Pillared arch and sculptured tower Of Ilium have had their hour; The dust of many a king is blown On the winds from zone to zone; Many a warrior sleeps unknown. Time and Death each hold in thrall, Yet is Love the lord of all; Still does Helen's beauty stir Because a poet sang of her!
