Time brings the greatest of the great to their knees. How is this true of King Ozymandias
Answers
The same happened with the Ozymandias , an arrogant ruler who considered himself the king of kings and everyone else below him.
At last je got defeated by time as his no work remained and even his statue got shatterd
Power and glory do not assure immortality and durability against all powerful time and nature. Everything in the world perishes with the passage of time and under the powerful influence of the elements of nature.
Even the mightiest of the mighty becomes one with the dust. No trace of them is left on the sands of time. Ozymandias, a powerful king of Egypt was proud of his glory and achievements.
He desired to immortalize his name and got a statue built. On the pedestal of the statue, an inscription was carved out about the power of Ozymandias that Ozymandias was invisible.
But nothing could stand against time and the powerful elements of nature. The broken statue symbolizes the destruction caused by time and nothing remains except vast stretches of sand. No doubt, time is the ultimate destroyer.
