Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jim and His Old Cornet Proem. Think well of these - my songs - though they may be But voiceless lines of syllables to thee. Through them a secret hope, I would confess, And if their dreary tones are meaningless, Still listen as to troubled, moaning seas - Or dream of winds that sob in forest trees. Think well of these. Think well of these - my songs - for what they mean To me. Each day the sunlight, thou hast seen Unthinking - yet one ray lost from man´s sin, Through prison bars is worlds to him within. These songs, to me, must either soothe or tease But you, who read songs only at your ease - Think well of these. And so I ask you - let the words suffice; Not that the songs you hear be called for twice, Not that you greet them with a loud applause, Seeking to find their origin or cause. But as you listen to the troubled seas, Thus wed my secret to this passing breeze - Think well of these. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
