"Ambition" is a poem by the 18th-century English poet William Collins, who is often celebrated for his lyrical and expressive style. Born in 1721, Collins was a prominent figure in the transition between the Augustan and Romantic periods in English literature. His works are known for their emotional depth, vivid imagery, and exploration of complex themes.

"Ambition" reflects Collins's preoccupation with the human condition and the pursuit of personal goals. The poem delves into the nature of ambition, examining both its inspiring and destructive aspects. Through rich and evocative language, Collins portrays ambition as a powerful force that drives individuals to achieve greatness but also warns of its potential to lead to downfall and despair.

The poem is structured with a keen attention to meter and rhyme, characteristic of Collins's meticulous craftsmanship. His use of classical references and allusions adds a layer of sophistication, inviting readers to consider the timeless nature of ambition and its impact on human history.

Collins's "Ambition" is often studied alongside his other works, such as "Ode to Evening" and "Ode on the Poetical Character," which similarly explore themes of human emotion, nature, and the role of the poet. Despite his relatively small body of work, Collins's influence on subsequent generations of poets, including the Romantics, is significant.

"Ambition" remains a poignant and thought-provoking piece, offering insights into the dual-edged nature of striving for success. It continues to be appreciated for its lyrical beauty and philosophical depth, securing William Collins's place as a notable figure in English literature.
