With echoes of a glorious name,
But he, whose loss our tears deplore,
Has left behind him more than fame.

  Jose Saramago

 In the morning, looking towards the sea side, the tide being low, I saw something lie on the shore bigger than ordinary, and it looked like a cask; when I came to it, I found a small barrel, and two or three pieces of the wreck of the ship, which were driven on shore by the late hurrican; and looking towards the wreck itself, I thought it seemed to lie higher out of the water than it used to do.
  Daniel DeFoe
