Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Songs of the Lowly, and Other Poems The Lost Song. I Plucked a wild flower from the river´s brim, And drank awhile its faint but fragrant breath. Then cast it forth upon the wave a-swim, And watched it, as I fancied, drift to death. "´Tis lost," I said; but far adown the tide A tempted maiden saw its dainty hue; She snatched it, kneeling at the water side. And vowed: "I will be pure, Sweet Flower, like you." And I, I never knew. I plucked a song from out my heart one day, And tossed it on the noisy stream of rhyme. Sadly I watched it slowly float away ´Mongst thistles, weeds and sprigs of fragrant thyme. "´Tis lost," I said, "´tis lost for evermore. Although within my heart of hearts it grew." And yet, far down beside the reedy shore It taught one soul its lesson sweet and true. And I, I never knew.
