Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John Milton: A Paper Read Before the Chicago Literary Club Monday Evening December 7, 1908 in Celebration of the Tercentenary of the Poet´s Birth "The work some praise, And some the architect." These are Milton´s words concerning Mulciber, "Whose hand was known in Heaven By many a towered structure high, Where sceptred angels hold their residence." Suffer me to praise the architect and only incidentally the work. The first edition of Milton´s minor poems appeared in 1645. The frontispiece was an engraved portrait of a morose and rather stupid-faced Englishman, whose long hair, parted in the middle, fell down on both sides to the high collar around the neck. Beneath the picture one could read in Latin, "John Milton, Englishman, in his twenty-first year"; and in Greek, four lines furnished to the engraver in jest by Milton himself.
