Oh little did the Wolf Child careB
When first he planned his homeC
What City should arise and bearB
The weight and state of RomeC
-
A shiftless westward wandering trampD
Checked by the Tiber floodE
He reared a wall around his campD
Of uninspired mudE
-
But when his brother leaped the WallF
And mocked its height and makeG
He guessed the future of it allF
And slew him for its sakeG
-
Swift was the blow swift as the thoughtH
Which showed him in that hourI
How unbelief may bring to naughtH
The early steps of PowerI
-
Foreseeing Time's imperilled hopesJ
Of Glory Grace and LoveK
All singers Caesars artists PopesL
Would fail if Remus throveM
-
He sent his brother to the GodsN
And when the fit was o'erI
Went on collecting turves and clodsN
To build the Wall once moreO
