Dinko Ranjina

“ In such an age as ours, my unenlightened foe,
'tis other names that now our poems do glorify,
for like a flower's leaves, there nothing on this earth
in any creature that does ever stay unchanged.
And so it is that words in which already once
ideas of old did glory, by now have lost their worth.
And those which now, you know, are much more highly prized
with passing time will be by others cast aside. ”
