Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Creation and Other Poems Creation Before all things in earths created realm A wat´ry waste, the world in chaos moved; And brooding over all, Jehovah´s love Conceived in darkness all the works of light. Through countless aeons He His purpose wrought. And order came where only chance had been. He spoke the word, and lo, the infant light Knocked at the portals of chaotic night. Feeble at first, it struggled with the gloom, But brighter grew as ages came and went - ´Til looming through the mists the earth appeared, A shining disk; drifting in endless space. Again He spoke and night and day began Their ceaseless round of alternating reign; And still the earth was but a dreary mass Of heaving waters rolling wave on wave. With heavens high He arched the waters o´er Dividing all above from all below And made the "empty places" limitless For future glories of His handiwork. At His command the caverns of the deep Yawned, and the sea was downward drawn And then dry land appeared above the flood. For ocean´s sway He set the metes and bounds That by his will it should not overpass About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
