The Psalmist numbered out the years of man:

They are enough; and if thy tale be true,[hr]

Thou, who didst grudge him even that fleeting span,[297]

More than enough, thou fatal Waterloo!

Millions of tongues record thee, and anew

Their children's lips shall echo them, and say—

"Here, where the sword united nations drew,[hs]

Our countrymen were warring on that day!"

And this is much—and all—which will not pass away.
