Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Veiled Figure and Other Poems (Apollodovus enters, supporting his aged father. It is sunset.) Cleisthenes. Son, are we there? Mine eyes are clouded o´er, The dusk of Hades steals upon my soul. O set me down, ere I be dead indeed; Thou´rt strong and young, must make no truce with Death, Lest haply Dis should envy thee thy youth And draw thee down with swift, relentless hand To dwell with him in yonder nether world. Now it is near me. Tell me, can st thou see The great Messenian Bay? Apollodorus. Yes, there it shines Like Spartas helm! And yet, I would thine eyes Might in its stead have rebeheld once more Phalerum´s Bay. O father, we are Greeks! What matters it if Hades lies before? The fame of Salamis can never die And thou hast fought at Salamis. Cleisthenes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
