Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The New Republic A God-like being, without hoe, or compass, or choice, or will, Is launched on a sea of worldly ills, into a realm of mystery. No Power to guide him in his path, No Hand to succor in Distress, "A pendulum swinging between two worlds." Manhood reached, he stood erect, sun-crowned, Surveying nature and her wondrous works, The blue Ethereal, sun, moon and stars, And fruitful, all-producing earth, Filling him with amazement and delight. He dreamed of power and wealth and all that follow in their wake, And the touch of Immortality in a world beyond filled his thirsty soul. He entered the arena with hope his only friend, In contact with a jostling multitude of human flesh, Moving and swaying like waves on an angry sea, In factory, shop and mine; The slaves of labor and the greed of man. He saw the struggling mass, and heard The piteous cries of wives and children asking bread: The picture of despair and misery on every face, and lamentations filling the air. And hope and love had fled from hearts of men. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
