Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Memoir of Samuel G. Drake Few realize the Antiquary´s worth: He pioneers the march of History; Exhumes the relics of long buried lore; Gathers up scrips and saws; lost pedigrees Found by the blazon of armorial shield; Black lettered parchments; coins, books odd and quaint; Wills, deeds and ballads; - waifs of olden time Dearer than oracles from Delphi´s steep Or Sibylline leaves, rescued from sport of winds; And as the Explorer of Diluvian rocks Unveils events in distant ages passed, So he his deep foundation lays on fact. For, like the signal on a mountain top Fact points the way alone which leads to Truth: Thence the Historian draws his rich supplies And pictures scenes of life, that live forever.
