Arthur Symons - Roman Meditation
Work rating: Low

Learn wisdom, this is wisdom, cry 
The teachers; and the teachers die. 
What should it profit me were mine 
The wisdom of the Antonine, 
Or Plato`s? What is it to me 
If that be wisdom or this be? 
I know the same unfaded world, 
A pebble from the brook, is hurled 
Forth from Time`s sling through endless ways, 
And I shall have no part or place 
Save in the pebble`s senseless speed. 
Wherein shall wisdom to my need 
Minister? how shall wisdom save 
From the last folly of the grave?
