Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sleeping World: And Other Poems The sleeping world. How sweet it is to think, as poets tell, That when their universal night has draped The earth with gloom, in snowy uniform And shining armor clad, with sleepless eyes A heavenly vanguard camps beside the world! I love to keep this fancy in my brain, And wonder, when the hovering night drops down Noiseless as down the sky Apollo´s herd Came driven by a roguish infant god, - Noiseless as drops a bird of sable plumes At rosy eve upon its downy nest, - If some bright spirit might not sometime come Who ne´er before had watched the slumbering world. I love to think of him with flaky feet Threading the mighty labyrinth of stars, Amid the choral harmony of spheres, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
