- 696Lone Mother of dead Empires! and control
- 703The Niobe of nations! there she stands,
- 704Childless and crownless, in her voiceless woe;
- 705empty urn within her withered hands,
- 711Rise, with thy yellow waves, and mantle her distress.

- 1298When falls the Coliseum, Rome shall fall;
- 1299And when Rome falls--the World." From our own land
