Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorial Ode: And Other Poems Memorial Ode (Read at the Founder´s Day exercises, March 9th, 1894.) No Life is lost, one says; no man´s work dies Utterly; none that looks upon the skies But leaves some record as secure as they From death and death´s decay. Lo, this is fate. Put forth thy strong hand where Men labor in Time´s garden-plot to-day, Eternity shall find the impress there. And haply this may be. But one says, Nay, there is naught that abides. Time is a wide unfathomable sea ´Neath whose recurrent tides Are swallowed up all things implacably. This rock-built earth whereof man makes his home Is less than the sea´s foam; The galaxies of stars that seem to him Perdurable as time, like bubbles swim Upon its surface and like them will burst; Yea, time itself that swallows up all these Must yield in turn, the last lost as the first, - Must sink whence it arose, Flow backward whence it flows, Into eternity´s soundless shoreless seas.
