Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Margaret of Anjou: A Poem Margaret There, in the dark and distant years Deep swallowed by oblivious time, Long pour´d a saint his holy tears For human care and human crime; And, as they say, no elvish sprite, Nor imp, nor goblin´s wayward powers, Even in the darkness of the night, May blight old Walden´s bowers, Because the holy man forbade That aught accurs´d should tread that venerable shade. IV. But time rolls on; the once green spray, Moss-mantled now, is turn´d to grey, And, tears and painful penance paid, The saint, long since, in dust is laid. Well may he rest! for harder fare Did never mortal pilgrim share. In bitter drops he steep´d his bread, Earth´s flinty bosom was his bed; He thought it meet thro´ life to go Frowning in voluntary woe; And still his spirit did not bend, He bore, unmurmuring, to the end; For well he ween´d, man´s little lot Is but a speck, a point, a spot, A moment´s conflict bravely borne, The prize, eternal day! an ever golden morn! IV. Well! rest his spirit! In the dell Where once this holy man did dwell, And where, amid this later age, Still peeps the ivied hermitage, Where close the social branches twin´d About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
