Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Select Poems and Tragedies I was holding him fast by the bridle, In knots stood each muscle and vein, My brow was all lined with my efforts His headlong career to restrain. A horse of a glorious lineage, Astarte-like born of the foam, Daily fed from Auroras bright chalice, Brought straight from her own starry home. A steed mighty and grand in his movements, Untamable, bounding on high, Ever filling, with resonant neighings, The vault of the deep, azure sky. To heaven each genius his bowl lifts, And kindling his torch from the sky, On the back of this wonderful monster Is seated and borne up on high. All thy poets and prophets in order Thou knowest, 0 earth, by the scars Of the burnings received from his harness Which shineth all over with stars.
