Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Solitary Hours Prelude The Solitary on the city square Oft mixes with the crowds that hustle there, His hands tucked in his pockets, and his dreams Adrift on the breast of the living streams, With phantom shapes or spectral shades beside - The only friends in whom he may confide. Alone within the midst of crowds he broods Like a recluse among secluded woods; Alone he muses on the busy square, With aimless feet, and heart relieved of care; Or scrutinizes oft the passer-by, Reading the heart and fathoming the eye, As through the city´s narrow streets or wide He strolls with friendly Loneliness as guide, Or sometimes mid the peace of rural scenes, With chin in hand, on a green bank he leans Beside a babbling brook, that aimless flows Through valley woods and fields from mountain snows - There listens to the music of the stream, And hears the leaves a-whispering a dream. And now, on through the pages of a book He strolls and sings; so, reader, if you look Within this little volume, you will find His pensive face, and peep into his mind.
