Rome Time Poem

O thou new comer who seek'st Rome in Rome; And find'st in Rome no thing thou canst call Roman; Arches worn old and palaces made common,; Rome's name alone within these walls keeps home.; Behold how pride and ruin can befall; One who hath set the whole world 'neath her laws,; All-conquering, now conquered, because; She is Time's prey and Time consumeth all.; Rome that art Rome's one sole last monument,; Rome that alone hast conquered Rome the town,; Tiber alone, transient and seaward bent,
: Remains of Rome. O world, thou unconstant mime!; That which stands firm in thee Time batters down,; And that which fleeteth doth outrun swift time.; Ezra Pound, Rome, Personae
