Victor Hugo - IndignationVictor Hugo - Indignation
Work rating: Low


Thou who loved Juvenal, and filed   His style so sharp to scar imperial brows, And lent the lustre lightening   The gloom in Dante`s murky verse that flows,-- Muse Indignation! haste and help   My building up before this roseate realm And its fruitless victories,   Whence transient shame Right`s prophets overwhelm, So many pillories deserved,   That eyes to come will pry without avail Upon the wood impenetrant,   And glean no glitter of its tarnished tale.
