Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Literary Hours, or Sketches, Critical, Narrative and Poetical, Vol. 3 Literary Hours. No. XLIV. Agricola incurvo terram dimovit aratro: Hinc anni labor, hinc patriam, parvosque nepotes Sustinet; hinc armenta boum meritosque juvencos. - Ipse dies agitat festos; fususque per herbam, Ignis ubi in medio, et socii cratera coronant, Te libans, Lenaee, vocat. Virgilius. The peasant yearly plows his native soil; The lands that blest his fathers bound his toil, Sustain his herd, his country´s wealth increase, And see his children´s children sport in peace. - He too, at times, where flames the rustic shrine, And, rang´d around, his gay compeers recline, In grateful leisure on some festive day Stretch´d on the turf delights his limbs to lay, To loose from care his disencumber´d soul, And hail thee, Bacchus! o´er the circling bowl. Sotheby. Had Herrick adopted any arrangement or classification for his poetry, it would probably have experienced a kinder fate.
