Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sons of Maine and Other Poems Proem Where human worth and nature´s wealth attain An envied station in the pride of Maine; In that far corner of an empire vast - Her farthest bulwarks to the eastern blast, And where the same, in rugged grandeur drawn, Stand as the gateways to the golden dawn; There, where the changing, ever healthful year Joins, like her sons, the gentle and severe; Where harvests rich bespeak a fertile soil, And stately forests yield their useful spoil; Where summer throngs Atlantic´s billows woo, And from our hills the inland glories view, Whence then the eye in wond´ring circle roams; While admiration points the happy homes; Where nature´s book, of every varying page, Provokes the soul to rapture´s finest rage: Where such abound a native son has fired, And now submits the message there inspired. Oh! were that message as those beauties pure, Of form as just, of color as secure! Had thus he sung, though with unlaurelled name, Vain were all praise and harmless were all blame; Then could he soar on fearless wing elate, Share the true poet´s fame and dare his fate.
