Excerpt from One Hundred and One Famous Poems: With a Prose SupplementAll are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of Time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme.Nothing useless is, or low; Each thing in its place is best; And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest.For the structure that we raise, Time is with materials filled; Our todays and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build.Truly shape and fashion these; Leave no yawning gaps between; Think not, because no man sees, Such things will remain unseen.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
