Clotho

How the Titan, the defiant,

The self-centred, self-reliant,

Wrapped in visions and illusions,

Robs himself of life's best gifts!

Till by all the storm-winds shaken,

By the blast of fate o'ertaken,

Hopeless, helpless, and forsaken,

In the mists of his confusions

To the reefs of doom he drifts!
