Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Traffics and Discoveries, Vol. 2 of 2 Kaspar´s song in ´Varda´ (From the Swedish of Stagnelius.) Eyes aloft, over dangerous places, The children follow where Psyche flies, And, in the sweat of their upturned faces, Slash with a net at the empty skies. So it goes they fall amid brambles, And sting their toes on the nettle-tops, Till after a thousand scratches and scrambles They wipe their brows, and the hunting stops. Then to quiet them comes their father And stills the riot of pain and grief, Saying, ´Little ones, go and gather Out of my garden a cabbage leaf. ´You will find on it whorls and clots of Dull grey eggs that, properly fed, Turn, by way of the worm, to lots of Radiant Psyches raised from the dead.´ ´Heaven is beautiful, Earth is ugly,´ The three-dimensioned preacher saith, So we must not look where the snail and the slug lie For Psyche´s birth... And that is our death! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
