Thou’lt be the relic of an age gone by.

THE ARTISTS

They have been born to model and to mould

The shapeless clay into expressive form

Even as gods! to seize the fleeting shades,

The subtle hues of things that pass or stay

And make them live and glow intensely.

They have been born to tell their wondrous dreams

In rhythmic stanzas full of strength and grace,

To plunge into the very depths of things,
