Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Oration on the Death of Daniel O´connell: Delivered at Castle Garden, New York, September 22, 1847 There is sad news from Genoa. An aged and weary pilgrim, who can travel no farther, passes beneath the gate of one of her ancient palaces, saying with pious resignation as he enters its silent chambers, "Well! it is God´s will that I shall never see Rome. I am disappointed. But I am ready to die. It is all right." "The superb," though fading Queen of the Mediterranean holds anxious watch, through ten long days, over that majestic stranger´s wasting frame. And now death is there - the Liberator of Ireland has sunk to rest in the Cradle of Columbus. Coincidence beautiful and most sublime! It was the very day set apart by the elder daughter of the Church for prayer and sacrifice throughout the world, for the children of the sacred Island, perishing by famine and pestilence in their homes and in their native fields, and on their crowded paths of exile, on the sea and in the havens, and on the lakes, and along the rivers of this far-distant land.
