Travellers’ TalesIn olden days a traveller
once said "I saw a statue,
and lying nearby on the ground
its head was looking at you.
Indeed, it had an ugly face
with wrinkled lips, so you can tell
the man who made it years ago
must have known the guy quite well.
'My name is Ozymandias'
It said there, on the bottom.
'My country was quite big back then,'
But now it's pretty rotten."
