Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Collection of the Letters of the Late Reverend James Hervey, A. M , Vol. 1 of 2: Rector of Weston-Favell, in Northamptonshire, and Author of the Meditations on the Tombs, Flower-Garde, &C.; To Which Is Prefixed, an Account of His Life and Death ´Alas! grim Death hath shot the fatal Dart, Which long seem´d pointed at his languid Heart. Th´ infatiate Tyrant, crown´d with fun´ral Gloom, In Triumph drags him to the hollow Tomb; Who now so well can paint the blooming Flower, Or preach from Sepulchres at Midnight Hour? Who now so well the Starry Heavens scan, And read the Lectures Nature meant for Man? No more his Voice a careless World can move, Or tell the Wonders of redeeming Love; No more shall Thousands round his Pulpit throng To hear the heav´nly Precepts of his Tongue: For lo! above this gross impurer Air, Releas´d from every Pain, and every Care: He soars alost (angelick Hosts his Guide) On Wings new plum´d, which ne´er before he try´d. With rapid Speed his golden Pinions rise Thro´ starry Plains, and skim th´Empyrean Skies. And now where sparkling Portals wide display The blissful Regions of eternal Day His Lord receives him ´midst cælestial Choirs, Who crown his Head, and strike their golden ´Lyres; Thro´ Heav´ns glad Courts the greeting Anthems ´roll, And Joys new blooming feast his ravish´d Soul; Joys which to tell all Eloquence is faint, And which the loftiest Muse can never paint.
