In the ages yet to come
though frosty oblivion with his
cruel hands
hang over me
yet
there will ages when
people will hear my voice and
my works read
my Principles regard and follow
fired by them to engineer life
and the whole of civilization grow
and leave ignorance relative in sorrow
but ah! that will be long I deem
that will be long!
My dust will tremble and quake for
so long before!
Emmanuel George Cefai
