577. Rome was not built in a day

```

Rome was not built in a day.

I have been telling this all along

To my impatient son,

Impatience.

Rome was not built in a day.

I have been telling this constantly

To my despondent daughter,

Despondency.

Rome was not built in a day.

I have been telling this year after year

To my doubting friend,

Doubt.

Rome was not built in a day.

I have been telling this tirelessly

To my mocking enemy,

Mockery. ```
