-MAN may know

With ease the hand of interposing Jove;
And with what purpose, whether to exalt
Or to depress---give strength or take away;
So all his aid is now not their's but OUR'S!
"Therefore STAND FAST---and whosoever, gall'd
By arrow or by spear, dies---LET HIM DIE!
Death for his country shall not slur his fame---
But his dear wife---his children after him---
His house and heritage shall be secure--

Drive but the Grecians from the SHORES OF TROY!
