Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Whittier Year Book: Passages From the Verse and Prose of John Greenleaf Whittier Chosen for the Daily Food of the Lover of Thought and Beauty The Pageant A sound as if from bells of silver, Or elfin cymbals smitten clear, Through the frost-pictured panes I hear. A brightness which outshines the morning, A splendor brooking no delay, Beckons and tempts my feet away. I leave the trodden village highway For virgin snow-paths glimmering through A jewelled elm-tree avenue; I tread in Orient halls enchanted, I dream the Saga´s dream of caves Gem-lit beneath the North Sea waves! I walk the land of Eldorado, I touch its mimic garden bowers, Its silver leaves and diamond flowers! What miracle of weird transforming In this wild work of frost and light, This glimpse of glory infinite! This foregleam of the Holy City, Like that to him of Patmos given, The white bride coming down from heaven About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
