Virtues

Rome’s most powerful man his notes taken

His privilege does not exempt him, he must awaken

Man is not built for comfort, to be warm

Man is he who flies best in storm

Impediment to action new action found

Virtue not man made his missives resound

To have no obligation yet duty feel

Like bronze must dream for want of steel

Man must against his laziness repeal repeal repeal

A fruit was man once, and layers he can peel

Back unto a pearl. Man, where his virtues are, act with zeal
