    A best-seller is the gilded tomb of a mediocre talent.

    I climb to the tower-top and lean upon broken stone,
    A mist that is like blown snow is sweeping over all,
    Valley, river, and elms, under the light of a moon
    That seems unlike itself, that seems unchangeable,
    A glittering sword out of the east.

    The end crowns all;
    And that old common arbitrator, Time,
    Will one day end it.
