Matthew Prior - Partial FameMatthew Prior - Partial Fame
Work rating: Low


The sturdy man, if he in love obtains, In open pomp and triumph reigns: The subtle woman, if she should succeed, Disowns the honour of the deed. Though he for all his boast is forced to yield, Though she can always keep the field, He vaunts his conquests, she conceals her shame: How partial is the voice of Fame!
