Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Delphic Days Long has my shallop been rocked on the beautiful Bosom of waters Rising in ripples of joy over the heart of fair Greece; - On the Corinthian Bosom, bared to the touch of the sunbeams That are wreathing its swell softly in flashes of gold. But the coquettish light sport of the sea with its dimples of laughter Quickly behind me I leave, - here now I leap on the shore Where is the road through vineyards and olives and hills up to Delphi: Held in a hymn of the God, thither I pass to his shrine. From the world´s other side, from the banks of the turbulent River Always rushing in rage down to the realms of the Sun, Where the vast flow of the waters doth sweep by the fens of Cahokia, Thence I a pilgrim have come over the ocean and earth. Wild is the turmoil that restlessly whirls in the stream of the River, Fierce are the insects that swarm through the great vale on its banks. But now in truth I have come to the much-sung home of the Muses, Now the thing I behold when may be spoken the name. Look! the glistening heights of Parnassus rise up in the distance, Over the land and the sea still they are sending their gleams. With that top for my mark I joyously start on my journey, For the way thither, I know, lies in Apollo´s bright realm.
