Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Frailties of Humanity and Other Poems Proem. This book is but a simple tome Designed to cheer the heart and home, To bring before the mind at ease The thoughts that profit and that please, And lead sojourners on the earth To truths immortal in their worth. A book when taken at its best Is nothing but a welcome guest; With pleasures that can never cloy, A certain source of perfect joy, That leaves its nutriment behind In pabulum to feed the mind. The one who bows at wisdom´s shrine, And follows in her ways divine, To knowledge that exalts the mind Above the others of his kind, Will learn this truth to comprehend: Each worthy volume is his friend. Books are with all their power fraught The treasure-house of ancient thought, That bring to view the days of yere, And reproduce the worthy lore, As by the magic of the pen Is kept alive the former men.
