• “The laurel-tree grew large and strong, Its roots went searching deeply down;It split the marble walls of Wrong, And blossomed o'er the Despot's crown.”
• “On me, on meTime and change can heap no more! The painful past with blighting grief Hath left my heart a withered leaf.Time and change can do no more.”
