Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poems of Winthrop Mackworth Praed, Vol. 2 of 2: With a Memoir The County Ball. "Busy people, great and small, Awkward dancers, short and tall, Ladies, fighting which shall call, Loungers, pertly quizzing all." Anon. This is a night of pleasure! Care, I shake thee from me! do not dare To stir from out thy murky cell, Where, in their dark recesses, dwell Thy kindred Gnomes, who live to nip The rose on Beauty´s cheek and lip. Until, beneath their venom´d breath, Life wears the pallid hue of Death. Avaunt! I shake thee from me, Care! The gay, the youthful, and the fair, From "Lodge," and "Court," and "House," and "Hall," Are hurrying to the County Ball. Avaunt! I tread on haunted ground, And giddy Pleasure draws around, To shield us from thine envious spite, Her magic circle! Nought to-night Over that guarded barrier flies But laughing lips and smiling eyes; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
