Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from And Other Poems To the Memory of Joseph Priestley He trod the lonely path of truth and light; He saw, beyond the shadow of his land, A gallant people hold with single hand The world at bay, for liberty and right, And bade her speed. For this, while very night Blushed to behold, the brainless rabble-band, To please our bigot sires, with impious brand Devoured his home and drave him from their sight. Discloser of the secret of the wind, We, who repenting of that dastard flame Have learnt with late remorseful bays to bind Thy marble brow, our glory and our shame, Are twice partakers of our father´s blame, If to strange lights we too are proud and blind.
