Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections From the Poems of Timothy Otis Paine The poems in this small posthumous volume are a part of those written by the author in the intervals of a busy student life. I say student life, yet he was as intrinsically a poet as a student, and, to speak most truly, it seems as if his life were made of three, symmetrically united into one. In the first place he was the active pastor, loving very much those he served for nearly forty years, and very much beloved by them. Then he was the learned archaeologist who restored Solomon´s Temple, using as his implements the many languages he learned for the purpose; employing, also, an artist power of illustration, so rare, so accurate, so exquisite, that the plates in his folio volume, beautiful as they are, are dwarfed by the original drawings from which they are taken.
