Despair

 

The sence that every strugle brings defeat,

Because fate holds no prize to ccrown success;

That all the oracles are dumb, or cheat,

Because they have no secret to express.-

That none can pierce the vast black, viel uncertain

Because there is no light behind the curtain,

That all is vanity and nothingness?
