Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from After Office Hours and Other Poems To The Reader: ´Tis not to win the golden prize Or poet´s laurel bays, I´ve sought to place before your eyes These few and simple lays. They´ve often lightened heavy grief, Have solaced lonely hours And proved a source of great relief When grim misfortune lowers. And, hence, I wish that I might gain Your kindly judgment, friend, For these, my children of the brain, Who do such comfort lend. To Abraham, God pledged reprieve For Sodom´s evil throng, If in it´s midst he could perceive A few who hated wrong. So, if, amid the ruder strains Which here do meet your quest, You find some rarer song obtains, Let it redeem the rest. J. W. W.
