Page 22 - Rome! my country! city of the soul! The orphans of the heart must turn to thee. Lone mother of dead empires! and control In their shut breasts their petty misery. What are our woes and sufferance? Come and see The cypress, hear the owl, and plod your way O'er steps of broken thrones and temples, — Ye! Whose agonies are evils of a day — A world is at our feet as fragile as our clay.

Page 99 - Hoc dicens , altaria ad ipsa trementem Traxit, et in multo lapsantem sanguine nati; Implicuitque comam laeva, dextraque coruscum Extulit ac lateri capulo tenus abdidit ensem. Haec finis Priami fatorum; hic exitus illum Sorte tulit, Trojam incensam et prolapsa videntem Pergama, tot quondam populis terrisque superbum Regnatorem Asiae.
