With his own prowess on the other half.

Thus shall he prosper, every day's success

Adding, to what is he, a solid strength—

An aëry might to what encircles him,

Till at the last, so life's routine lends help,

That as the Emperor only breathes and moves,

His shadow shall be watched, his step or stalk

Become a comfort or a portent, how

He trails his ermine take significance,—

Till even his power shall cease to be most power,
