Poem by Robert Herrick The Pillar of Fame Fame’s pillar here at last we set, Out-during marble, brass or jet; Charmed and enchanted so As to withstand the blow O f o v e r t h r o w; Nor shall the seas, Or o u t r a g e s Of storms, o’erbear What we uprear; Tho’ kingdoms fall, This pillar never shall Decline or waste at all; But stand for ever by his own Firm and well-fixed foundation.
