Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems, Vol. 2 of 2: Descriptive, Dramatic, Legendary, and Contemplative; I. Southern Passages and Pictures; II. Historical and Dramatic Sketched; III. Scripture Legends; IV. Francesca Da Rimini Southern Passages That sacred season of the heart, When every pulse with hope is strong, And, still untaught by selfish art, Truth fears no guile, and love no wrong. And who, but nature´s self, could yield The blessing in the prayer I made, Throned in her realm of wood and field, Of rocky realm and haunted shade? Who, but that magic queen, whose sway Drives winter from his path of strife, Whilst all her thousand fingers play, With bud and bird, in games of life! With these a kindred life I ask, - Not wealth that mortals vainly seek; But, in heaven´s sunshine let me bask, My heart as glowing as my cheek; - An idle heart, that would not heed That chiding voice, when duty comes, To drag the soul, but freshly freed, Back to cold toils and weary glooms. No lure she finds in mortal schemes, Which wiser fancies still reprove, - Far happier in her woodland dreams, With one sweet teacher, taught by love! Thou, Nature, that magician be, Restore each dream that taught the boy, That warm´d his hope, that made him free, While wisdom took the shape of joy; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
