Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Shadowy Land, and Other Poems: Including the Guests of Brazinl The Shadowy Land. Far, far beneath the realms of man and day, Whither th´ adventurous wing of bird ne´er roamed, Nor prowled the cavern seeking wolf, a clime Mysterious, darkling, ghostly and sublime, Spreads vast through regions measureless as air. Save when a spirit, from its mortal thrall Cut loose by the sharp scythe of death, flits down The earnest of its lasting fate to taste, At the dread portals of that kingdom knocks No human visitor from earthly scenes. At times some angel on consoling wing, Or imp with news of wickedness besmeared, Invades the dim retirement of those realms. The dead here sit in mystic conclave, wrapt In the great themes eternity unfolds. Seamed by an awful chasm, (misty, dark, And haunted by uncouth and hateful shapes,) The kingdom of the dead is formed in two. The kingdom of the dead is formed in two. The One the Paradise where souls redeemed, Lapped in Elysian hopes, await the hour When Christ their ´spiritual bodies´ shall command About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
