DEEDS UNDONE, by                    
First Line: He scorned the gifts that fortune brought
Last Line: Gave him a giant's strength.


He scorned the gifts that fortune brought,
And smiled, and went his way;
For some men still regard I ought
As greater than I may.

The path he trod forgot the sun
In unillumined length;
But deeds that he had never done
Gave him a giant's strength.
