Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Airs of Palestine: A Poem Summer´s dun cloud, that, slowly rising, holds The sweeping tempest in its rushing folds, though o´er the ridges of its thundering breast, The King of Terrours lifts his lightning crest; Pleas´d we behold, when those dark folds we find, Fring´d with the golden light, that glows behind. So, when one language bound the human race, On Shinar´s Plain, round Babel´s mighty base, Gloomily rose the minister of wrath; Dark was his frown, destructive was his path; That tower was blasted by the touch of Heaven; That bond was burst - that race asunder driven: Yet, round the Avenger´s brow, that frown´d above, Play´d Mercy´s beams - the lambent light of Love. All was not lost, though busy Discord flung Repulsive accents from each jarring tongue; All was not lost; for Love one tie had twin´d, And Mercy dropp´d it, to connect mankind: About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
