Victor Hugo - Napoleon the LittleVictor Hugo - Napoleon the Little
Work rating: Low


How well I knew this stealthy wolf would howl   When in the eagle talons ta`en in air! A-glow, I snatched thee from thy prey, fowl!   I held thee, abject conqueror, just where All see the stigma of a fitting name As deeply red as deeply black`s thy shame! And though thy matchless impudence may frame   Some mask of seeming courage, spite thy sneear (And thou assurest sloth and skunk, "It does not hurt!")   Thou feel`st it burning, in and in; and Fear Says, "None forget it till shall hide congenial dirt!"
