All-conquering dragons! creep over the streets
Which the city hath reared in the pride of her power
Beslime them with ruin, befoul them with heats
Let them lie in the dust as the things of an hour
All-conquering dragons! creep over the youths
As they wrestle with Fate, and are vanquished and thrown
With hissing facts and of palpable truths
Let the burden of life to their souls be made known
All-conquering dragons! creep over the old
Let them loosen their grasp that hath strengthened their days
Their wisdom die out, their wisdom die out, as a dream that is told
And the works of their life turn to frivolous plays
All-conquering dragons! creep over the dead
Let their honours fall from them, their memory die
Unsceptered the hand, and uncrowned be the head
In the waters of Lethe unwept let them lie
Is it nothing to you, all ye men that pass by
All-conquering dragons! creep over the streets
