<h1>ode</h1>
<p>we are the music-makers,</p>
<p>And we are the dreamers of dreams,</p>
<p>wandering by lone sea-breakers,</p>
<p>and sitting by desolate streams.</p>
<p>world-losers and world-forsakers,</p>
<p>upon whom the pale moon gleams;</p>
<p>yet we are the movers and shakers,</p>
<p>of the world forever, it seems.</p>
<p>with wonderful deathless ditties</p>
<p>We build up the world's great cities,</p>
<p>And out of a fabulous story</p>
<p>We fashion an empire's glory:</p>
<p>One man with a dream, at pleasure,</p>
<p>Shall go forth and conquer a crown;</p>
<p>And three with a new song's measure</p>
<p>Can trample an empire down.</p>
<p>We, in the ages lying</p>
<p>In the buried past of the earth,</p>
<p>Built Nineveh with our sighing,</p>
<p>And Babel itself with our mirth;</p>
<p>And o'erthrew them with prophesying</p>
<p>To the old of the new world's worth;</p>
<p>For each age is a dream that is dying,</p>
<p>Or one that is coming to birth.</p>
