Imperial Walls |
Strange to behold* |
Is the stone of this wall |
Broken by fate. |
The strongholds are bursten, |
The work of giants decaying; |
The roofs are fallen, |
The towers are tottering, |
Mouldering palaces roofless, |
Weather-marked masonry shattering. |
Shelters time-scarred, |
Tempest-marred, |
Undermined of old. |
Earth’s grasp holdeth |
Its mighty builders |
Tumbled, crumbled, |
In gravel’s harsh grip |
Till a hundred generations |
Of men pass away. |
Till a hundred generations of men pass away, |
Till a hundred generations of men pass away. |
