I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said 

"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert
Near them, in the sand, half-sunk
A shattered visage lies
Whose frown and wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
That yet survive, stamped on those lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed
And on the pedestal these words appeared

'My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair'

Nothing beside remains
Round the decay of that forgotten wreck
Boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away
