Excerpt from The Ridpath Library of Universal Literature, Vol. 15 of 25: A Biographical and Bibliographical Summary of the World's Most Eminent Authors, Including the Choicest Selections and Masterpieces From Their Writings
But, finished, we our own success lament, And rue the pains so fearfully misspent.
To headlong ruin see whole nations driven, Cursed with their prayers by too indulgent heaven, Bewildered thus, by folly or by fate.
