Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Imaginary Dialogue: With Other Poems The principal poem in this volume opens with the two celebrated travellers Belzoni and Burckhardt entering the catacombs of ancient Egypt by the sacred way, to make discoveries and view the remains of mummies which had been walled up for three thousand years. Selecting one of the mummies from, the heap, the imaginary dialogue is carried on by the three speakers of the piece, who relieve each other in turn and help to impart interest to the historical narrative down to the period of Egyptian rule and pre-eminence, when domestic life is embodied, until luxury and extravagance hastened her downfall and proved her ruin.
