Celebrating and lamenting the ancients…

From days of yore, from ancient times long before,
were prophets, and bards and sages;
these men of lore, who wrote of fate and more,
were scribes of the scroll of ages.

Today we know, from what the documents show,
that these men were highly revered;
so long ago, these souls spoke of tomorrow;
and now they have all disappeared.
