Triumph: this was the accolade bestowed on a commanding general who had been victorious in battle
In order to triumph a general must first have conquered an enemy of over 5000 and have obtained permission from the Senate to bring his army into the city of Rome and ride in a horse-drawn chariot.
There were two sons and a daughter, too young to realize the gravity of the occasion, and their very insensibility of their condition rendered it all the more deplorable, so much so that hardly anyone paid attention to Perseus, and the pity of the Romans was concentrated on the children.

 Swinburne's "The Triumph of Time" and His Characteristic Poetic Structure
"The Triumph of Time," one of Swinburne's finest early poems, opens with the figure of the shipwreck, for now, as he is about to part from his unnamed beloved, he realizes that he exists, and will exist henceforth, in the condition of the shipwrecked mariner.
In "The Triumph of Time" Swinburne finds a function for poetry and can thus respond affirmatively to the question Gerard Manley Hopkins asks in a very different context -- "is the shipwreck then a harvest?" (The Wreck of the Deutschland, 1875).
Swinburne's characteristic poetic organization, in other words, is obviously related to his conceptions of time and human life, for although it is ill suited for conveying Tennysonian forms of experience, it permits him to endow certain carefully chosen situations with a central importance and thus turn them into representative moments.

 Time, the Fates, and Lost Love in Swinburne's "The Triumph of Time"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The narrator acknowledges that the likelihood of his love having been ended by an ill twist of fate was greater than by the death of himself or his lover, since there are three Fates and just one death.
However the other agent blamed with separating the narrator and his love is time, and many images that seemingly relate to the Fates are attributed to time.
The idea that time can "sever" two things comes up repeatedly, for example in the lines "Time, swift to hasten and swift to sever" (line 3) and "Time shall not sever us wholly in twain" (line 14).

Meares was in the reverse situation at the world championships in Melbourne last May when she held the best time of 34.342 and had to sweat it out with seven riders left in the competition before claiming the title.
Meares' older sister, Kerrie, was the former Australian champion in the time trial and probably would have been in Athens ahead of her sibling if not for a back injury last year which ruled her out of the Games.
