Carthage
Oh, degenerate child of a noble and glorious mother,
Who to the vigour of Rome added the Tyrian's craft!
Romans sternly ruled the worlds they had taken in action,
While the Tyrian taught worlds he had cunningly won.
What thine historical fame? Thou conquerest, true, like a Roman,
Sword in hand; but thy rule savours of Tyrian gold.
