Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dramatic Works of Lord Byron, Vol. 2 of 4: Including Manfred, Cain, Doge of Venice, Sardanapalus, and the Two Foscari, Together With His Hebrew Melodies and Other Poems Manfred alone. - Scene a Gothic Gallery. - Time Midnight. Man. The lamp must be replenish´d, but even then It will not burn so long as I must watch: My slumbers - if I slumber - are not sleep, But a continuance of enduring thought, Which then I can resist not: in my heart There is a vigil, and these eyes but close To look within; and yet I live, and bear The aspect and the form of breathing men. But grief should be the instructor of the wise; Sorrow is knowledge: they who know the most Must mourn the deepest o´er the fatal truth, The Tree of Knowledge is not that of Life. Philosophy and science, and the springs Of wonder, and the wisdom of the world, I have essay´d, and in my mind there is A power to make these subject to itself - But they avail not: I have done men good. And I have met with good even among men - But this avail´d not: I have had my foes. And none have baffled, many fallen before me - But this avail´d not: - Good, or evil, life. Powers, passions, all I see in other beings. Have been to me as rain unto the sands. Since that all-nameless hour. I have no dread, And feel the curse to have no natural fear. Nor fluttering throb, that beats with hopes or wishes, Or lurking love of something on the earth. - Now to my task. - About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
