Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Verdicts Verdicts. Imagine yourself on Olympus at two, Zeus yawning from not having something to do, Tired out and quite sick for a pleasure that´s new. The very thing strikes him; he has what he seeks, And, turning to Hermes, the Thunderer speaks. I´ll look through his Verdicts; tell Minos to send ´em; I´ve doubts how he´s sentenced these Poets - I´ll end ´em His rough honest judgments, much some of ´em need ´em; Mnemosyne, dearest, I´ll get you to read ´em. Their praises have so been buzzed into my ears! Why, I´ve heard nothing else for the past fifty years! And I´d know, now at last they´re away from the Earth, And judged, what the landings of mortals are worth; There´s many a fame that the wearer but owes To the personal likings of critics he knows, And many a name that is smothered through pique, Through not being quite of a sect or a clique; To instance the first, look to what a false height Consumption and Southey threw up a Kirke White; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
