Save that this other Self was new indued
With Power that his must never be;
For how could one be great, who felt he was not free!
He saw that other self beside a Throne, 30

Virtuous, and still more happy, then.
He seemed as fitted for his State,
And not by Love of Greatness led;
But as a Man advanced by Fate
