Master of human destinies am I. Fame and fortune on my footsteps wait as I walk cities and fields Deserts and seas I penetrate passing by hovels marts palaces soon or late I knock unbidden at every gate The hour of fate follows those who seek me and fear me not those who doubt are condemned to failure and want.
