Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Arts of Life (On reading Schliemann´s "Troy" and Tylor´s "Primitive Culture") . ... Ah, old Troy! long buried, long forgot! Below, another Troy; below, Troy older I What Below, who telleth? Such is aye man´s lot - Building on his earth-hid past, The last forever to last! Ah, the leaves in Time´s blast, How they whirl and flutter and fall, And cover the old with their pall, And nourish the new with their all! Behold Life´s history! Behold Death´s mystery! Behold Earth´s prophecy! In every new lives all the old; The present builds on all past´s mould. So the beads of Time´s rosary are told. And still the man repeats the race: The baby´s faltering, awkward grace Fit-pats in the primeval pace. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
