Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial of Alfred Mason Williams: Born October 23, 1840, Died March 9, 1896 Alfred M. Williams. Is this the end - a lamp blown out forever? That matchless memory, wit and wisdom fled? That wondrous mind, that heart of high endeavor - Are all these things as naught, now he is dead? Yet ´tis the kindly heart we most are mourning, The helping hand that ever beckoned higher, The lofty soul, the low pretensions scorning, The voice that bade to nobler deeds aspire. No faithful friend a farewell uttered o´er him. Was this an end befitting such as he? Was it to this poor goal his journeys bore him, A lonely island in a distant sea? Yet as in death, in life so walked he lonely, Drew with infrequent hand the veil apart And showed where sorrow sat with the silent And inner sanctuary of his heart. From words of bard and sage he fain would borrow Balm for the wounds of unforgetting pain - The pen his shield from all-intrusive sorrow, So should his loss become another´s gain. Could he but tell to us this one last story, That lonely journey to the unknown land! Was it through the paths of pain, or gates of glory? Alas, the idle pen, the quiet hand!
