The last stanza of "Shakespeare:"
No! At the destined hour, when you felt banished
by God from your existence, you recalled
those secret manuscripts, fully aware
that your supremacy would rest unblemished
by public rumor’s unashamed brand
that ever, midst the shifting dust of ages,
faceless you’d stay, like immortality
itself – then, in the distance, smiling, vanished.
