Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Death of Adam: And Other Poems The Death of Adam Cedars, that high upon the untrodden slopes Of Lebanon stretch out their stubborn arms, Through all the tempests of seven hundred years Fast in their ancient place, where they look down Over the Syrian plains and faint blue sea, When snow for three days and three nights hath fall´n Continually, and heaped those terraced boughs To massy whiteness, still in fortitude Maintain their aged strength, although they groan; In such a wintriness of majesty, O´ersnowed by his uncounted years, and scarce Supporting that hard load, yet not o´ercome, Was Adam: all his knotted thews were shrunk, Hollow his mighty thighs, toward which his beard, Pale as the stream of far-seen waterfalls, Hung motionless; betwixt the shoulders grand Bowed was the head, and dim the gaze; and both His heavy hands lay on his marble knees. So sits he all day long and scarcely stirs, And scarcely notes the bright shapes of his sons Moving in the broad light without his tent, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
