Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pausanias: A Dramatic Poem Pausanias´ apartments in Byzantium. An audience chamber near Pausanias´ sleeping-room. The pillars are of dark green marble and the hangings are of a deep red. At the back are windows looking out on the streets of Byzantium. There are a few heavy state chairs of shining ebony, but for the greater part the room is marked by a military simplicity. It is entered by doors to right and left. Between the windows at the rear is a balcony looking out over the houses of Byzantium toward the distant hills. A divan to the left is of ebony like the chairs. Myron and Draca stand by the door at the left, talking. Draca. Methinks, good Myron, that upon thy brow There hangs a darker gloom than huntsmen feel, Who straying on Taygetus mountain seek For game, but lose, deep in the forest shades, Their way. Speak, Myron, wherefore art thou sad? Myron. Ah, would I might put all my grief in words So none of it were left within my heart! This is a world that changes with the wind, And in the affairs of men ´tis ever autumn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
