In every age mankind attempts / To fabricate great works / At once magnificent / And impossible...

On desert sands, from mountains of stone

A pyramid!

From flying buttresses alone / A wall of light!

A chapel ceiling

Screaming one man's ecstasy!

Miracles them all! China's endless wall...

Stonehenge...

The Parthenon...

The Duomo...

The Aqueducts of Rome!
