With all who want not skill to couple grief 245
With praise, as genuine admiration prompts.

Yet in his page the records of that worth
Survive, uninjured;—glory then to words,

If Hope’s familiar whispers merit faith,
Await my steps when they the breezy height
Shall range of philosophic Tusculum;[90]
