From His Tongue Flowed Speech

Nothing Feebler Does Earth Nurture Than Man, Of All Things Breathing And Moving.

The Hearts Of Great Men Can Be Changed.

Insignificant Mortals, Who Are As Leaves Are, And Now Flourish And Grow Warm With Life, And Feed On What The Ground Gives, But Then Again Fade Away And Are Dead.

Let Me Not Then Die Ingloriously And Without A Struggle, But Let Me First Do Some Great Thing That Shall Be Told Among Men Hereafter.

Wise To Resolve, And Patient To Perform.
