How many, once lauded in song, are given over to the forgotten; and how many who sung their praises are clean gone long ago!

How many, once lauded in song, are given over to the forgotten; and how many who sung their praises are clean gone long ago!

How many, once lauded in song, are given over to the forgotten; and how many who sung their praises are clean gone long ago!

How many, once lauded in song, are given over to the forgotten; and how many who sung their praises are clean gone long ago!

How many, once lauded in song, are given over to the forgotten; and how many who sung their praises are clean gone long ago!
