Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Inez De Castro: A Poem in Three Cantos To Caroline. In olden time when minstrels sang; They reeked not of the world´s applause; In honest warmth their wild notes rang Unfettered by the critics´ laws. They wrote not for an empty name - They wrote not for a passing fame - Nor dared to prostitute the muse, To base and mercenary views. But only sang the truths God taught. What time they roamed the realms of thought; And when the world arose with might To crush them in unequal fight: They cared not so a lady´s eye, Beamed kindly on their poesy. Their flag, the loud-tongued mass above. They dauntlessly unfurled: Their own great hearts - their lady´s love - These were the Poet´s world! Star of my soul! In modern times, If I awake my humbler rhymes: And echo o´er the peaceful plains, My free - my honest-hearted strains: It is not that the jabbering crowd. That talks so falsely and so loud, Is pleasing music to mine ear, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
