Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Milton Milton! thou shouldst be living at this hour: England hath need of thee: she is a fen Of stagnant waters: altar, sword and pen, Fireside, the heroic wealth of hall and bower, Have forfeited their ancient English dower Of inward happiness. We are selfish men; Oh! raise us up, return to us again; And give us manners, virtue, freedom, power. Thy soul was like a Star, and dwelt apart: Thou hadst a voice whose sound was like the sea Pure as the naked heavens, majestic, free, So didst thou travel on life´s common way, In cheerful godliness; and yet thy heart The lowliest duties on herself did lay. Wordsworth. 0 Mighty-mouth´d inventor of harmonies. O skill´d to sing of Time or Eternity, God-gifted organ-voice of England, Milton, a name to resound for ages; Whose Titan angels, Gabriel, Abdiel, Starr´d from Jehovah´s gorgeous armouries, Tower, as the deep-doomed empyrean Rings to the roar of an angel onset - Me rather all that bowery loneliness, The brooks of Eden mazily murmuring, And bloom profuse and cedar arches Charm, as a wanderer out in ocean, Where some refulgent sunset of India Streams o´er a rich ambrosial ocean isle, And crimson-hued the stately palm-woods Whisper in odorous heights of even.
