Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chimneypiece of Bruges, and Other Poems The Chimneypiece of Bruges. Four centuries, with all their weight of woe, Have rolled across the world, since one bright day In which was wrought a tragedy as dark As any, history´s page recorded holds. A.D. 1479. It was a morning full of the glad light Of early summer, when the trees put on Their softest tints of green, and birds do sing And carol all the happy hours of May. Fair upon ancient Bruges fell the rays Of joyous sunlight, touching pointed roofs With gold, making white fronts of houses beam Like angels´ wings, bright´ning the belfry brown And towers of ancient churches, till the walls And mighty gates against the foe reared up Had well nigh lost their grimness in the glow. Outside the walls floweth the great canal Which carries boats and merchandise to Ghent; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
