Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Dr. Jonathan Swift, Vol. 6: Dean of St. Patrick´s, Dublin Cadenus and Vanessa. Written, Anno 1713. The shepherds and the nymphs were seen Pleading before the Cyprian queen. The council for the fair began, Accusing the false creature man. The brief with weighty crimes was charg´d, On which the pleader much enlarg´d; That Cupid now has lost his art, Or blunts the point of ev´ry dart; His altar now no longer smokes, His mother´s aid no youth invokes: This tempts Free-thinkers to refine, And bring in doubt their pow´rs divine; Now love is dwindled to intrigue. And marriage grown a money-league. Which crimes aforesaid with her leave) Were (as he humbly did conceive) Against our sov´reign lady´s peace, Against the slatute in that cafe, Against her dignity and crown: Then pray´d an answer, and fat down.
