Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Face in the Girandole: A Romance of Old Furniture The Girandole. Like a pale moon enframed in clouds of gold, Fair, orbèd glass, how much you might have told Of scenes evanished from before your face, Had you the wish to and of speech the grace! Two gilded cornucopias ascend To frame you; slender, spiral sconces bend On either side to hold each taper-light That shines reflected in your face at night. Child of your master maker Chippendale, Who wrought your ornaments so fair and frail, Did Great Grand-mother pause in tete-a-tete Before you seeing if her hat were straight, Or Great Grand-father, in the lover´s role, Adjust his scarf before you. Girandole? Did men and maidens steal a furtive glance, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
