"All is ephemeral—fame and the famous as well."
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121–180) Meditations, IV, 35

Published in "Troll." Meredith, chess puzzle. On 1.. f5 no mate is set, so a try is 1. Qb7? f5 2. Qg7#, but 1.. d3! Thus 1. Qa8 f5 Qh8#; on 1.. d3 , d5 2. Qa1#, Qb8# changed mates; on 1.. e3, f3 the set mates 2. Nd3#, Bh2#.
