In time and measure perfect moves <br />All Art whose aim is sure; <br />Evolving rhyme and stars divine <br />Have rules, and they endure. <br /> <br />Nor less the Fleet that warred for Right, <br />And, warring so, prevailed, <br />In geometric beauty curved, <br />And in an orbit sailed. <br /> <br />The rebel at Port Royal felt <br />The Unity overawe, <br />And rued the spell. A type was here, <br />And victory of LAW.<br /><br />Herman Melville<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dupont-s-round-fight-november-1861/
