Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Prophet and Other Poems The Prophet. The prophecy must be beyond the ears - If otherwise, wherein attain we growth? There are forerunners: the aftercomers know A-verity their message: jostling proclaim With brazen tongues the truth arrived from far. But how the Prophet and his shaking heads, Wherewith shall solace his negation wide? The harmony which comes by death to him Is useless as a balsam: - if on high Ring out his sudden words because enforced By the tumultuous beating of his powers, When back their echoes drift to him again, He, broken in the throng, silently yields Their reputation to the weird, rude winds - The airs men breathe not - fitted for night and waste. T is the dark curse of vision cast afar To fail thro´ noisome vapors rising near. Prophet and man live side by side in time: Where Reason reaches raises the head of man - The proud, rude Prophet, driven on the wings Of blasts impalpable, utters the cries, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
