Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems of War and Peace: Enlarged From the First Edition, Including the Panama Ode, the Corridors of Congress, Poems of the Great War, a Teacher, the Little Room of Dreams, Etc Goethals of Panama I Servant of Man, well done! Thy war of peace is won. The dream of continents five and centuries four Is dream no more. Once, on a waiting "peak in Darien," Obscure till then, But made immortal by a single line Of verse divine, Bold Balboa, following the lure Of fell Adventure´s backward-glancing eyes, Found the new wonder that he sought. What did he not endure That still another watery realm He thus might add as kingdom to the Spanish helm! Oh, joy supreme of half-divined surprise! - When, foremost climber, to his heart he caught The virgin sight of that uplifted sea, As new, as free, As though it had but just begun to be. Then, as he knelt, a second dream there came: The "wild surmise" His silent followers felt, but could not frame. For who could see so near those oceans flow But wish them mated - nay, but see them so? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
