Deus supernos! negat superbis vitam supernam.

Proud man know this! then wherefore art thou proud?

This awful doom—terrific cries aloud—

Death lifts his arm! with unrelenting dart,

Ready to pierce thy lofty-tow'ring heart.

Why then persist? The Almighty hath denied

Eternal life to all the slaves of Pride!
