Of his bones are coral made:
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell, Ding-dong

For victory brings power and prestige
And the children of the children of the fighters
Take all for granted, and, in turn, oppress
