OZYMANDIAS
I met a traveller from an antique land
who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its scluptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
the hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestalthese words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, kings of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of the colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
