Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Horæ Lyricæ and Divine Songs Encomiums On Watts To Dr. Watts, On The Fifth Edition Of His Horæ Lyricæ. Sovereign of sacred verse, accept the lays Of a young bard that dares attempt thy praise. A Muse, the meanest of the vocal throng, New to the bays, nor equal to the song, Fir´d with the growing glories of thy fame, Joins all her powers to celebrate thy name. No vulgar themes thy pious Muse engage, No scenes of lust pollute thy sacred page; You in majestic numbers mount the skies, And meet descending angels as you rise, Whose just applauses charm the crowded groves, And Addison thy tuneful song approves. Soft harmony and manly vigour join, To form the beauties of each sprightly lice, For every grace of every Muse is thine. Milton, immortal bard, divinely bright, Conducts his favourite to the realms of light. Where Raphael´s lyre charms the celestial throng, Delighted cherubs listening to the song: From bliss to bliss the happy beings rove, And taste the sweets of music and of love. But when the softer scenes of life you paint, And join the beauteous virgin to the saint; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
