Vain empty words
Of honor, glory, and immortal fame,
can these recall the spirit from its place,
or re-inspire the breathless clay with life?
What tho' your fame with all its thousand trumpets,
sound o'er the sepulchres, will that awake
The sleeping dead?

And what is fame, that flutt'ring noisy sound,
but the cold lie of universal vogue?

In Fame's temple there is always a niche to be found for rich dunces, importunate scoundrels or successful butchers of the human race.
