Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Trilogy or Dante´s Three Visions: Translated Into English in the Metre and Triple Rhyme of the Original, With Notes Benign Apollo, this last labour aid; Make me thy vessel, with thy might imbue, And thy loved laurel give, my brow to shade. One summit of Parnassus hitherto Sufficed me; now must I tread both beneath, While I the race in this last stage pursue. Enter my bosom, thy own spirit breathe, As when with Marsyas, in contention placed, Thou from their covering didst his limbs unsheathe. O Power Divine, should I be so much graced, That of yon blissful realm the memory On me impressed may now by me be traced, I shall be seen approach thy favourite tree, And with its leaves then crown myself, if thou And my high theme such merit give to me. So rarely gathered, Father, for the brow With triumph crowned, of Emperor or Bard, (Of human wills the fault and scandal now) To the blithe Delphic deity, regard For the Peneian leaf new joy should bring. When any mortal thirsts for that reward. From one small spark a mighty blaze may spring; And after me some poet´s prayer may rise Which, better sung, may Cirrha´s answer bring.
