As the worm of corruption, it is the mightiest of all adversaries of the gods the special adversary of their light and creative power Python against Apollo.
So small and helpless in its mightiest forms, so august even in its meanest, that life in its wholeness was then realised by her as the direct outbirth of, and the meek dependant upon, the Energy of Divine Love. She felt at once the fugitive character of its apparent existence, the perdurable Reality within which it was held.
Although the year 1810 saw the Napoleonic empire at the crest of its greatness in Europe; although by that time the Emperor was the mightiest personal factor in world politics; although in that year he married a daughter of the Caesars, and thought he had laid plans for the foundation of a dynasty that should perpetuate the Napoleonic name in association with Napoleonic power yet, in that very year, France had been stripped of the last inch of her colonial possessions.
You know, Worm, how greatly my influence depends upon this lady how my mightiest prospects hang upon the passions of the prince. The duke is now seeking a partner for Lady Milford. Some one else may step in conclude the bargain for her ladyship, win the confidence of the prince, and make himself indispensable, to my cost.
In my little chamber, which looked out upon the courtyard of the Palace, I passed my days, thinking over the past and all its vicissitudes.

And he finds further yet with a great joy that he may be doing something for an entire world.
"Sometimes it surprises himself. But most of the mightiest made their own chance." "I know that. I'm going to make mine. Power is what I want an' it's what I'm goin' to have. But I've got to get away from here. Julius Cæsar couldn't do nothin' here." When Jefferson Edwardes came down stairs Mary, who had slipped timidly away, edged into the room, bashful and adorned.
I pace the length of the three Titanic stones of the wall of Baalbee, mightiest masses of quarried rock that man has lifted into the air; and then I dive into some mass of foliage with my microscope, and trace the veinings of a leaf so delicately wrought in the painting not made with hands, that I can almost see its down and the green aphis that sucks its juices.
That eminent man had just published his pamphlet on the American question, entitled "Taxation no Tyranny;" a work whose pompous sarcasms on the Congress of Philadelphia, when compared with what has happened since, dwindle into puerilities, and show what straws upon the great tide of events are even the mightiest intellects of this world.
