~Unsubdued~

I have hoped, I have planned, I have striven
To the will I have added the deed
The best that was in me I've given
I have prayed, but the Gods would not heed,

I have dared; and reached only disaster
I have battled and broken my lance;
I am bruised by a pitiless master
That the weak and the timid call chance,

I am old, I am bent, I am cheated
Of all that youth urged me to win
But name me not with the defeated
Tomorrow again,
I begin.
