Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jane Austen To Jane Austen O thou who to romance´s sleights Didst come as dawn to elves and sprites, Replacing spectre-haunted nights With daylight´s genial reign; Shrewd exorcist - who couldst so well Romance´s goblin bands expel, Yet keep thine own unrivalled spell, Incomparable Jane! How doth thy bodkin´s slender steel Men´s frailties and faults reveal! To thee Achilles is all heel, Thou lash of Folly´s train! Thou scourgest tomboy, cynic, grig, The man whose diction is all wig, The snob, the autocrat, the prig, Inimitable Jane! Thou seekest truth, and when ´tis found Thou dost its sportive whims confound; The shafts, the stables, and the pound Shall now its pranks restrain; It dreads thy logic´s bristling fence, Thy files of serried evidence, Thy panoplied, embattled sense, Irrefragable Jane! I know thy passion´s cautious throes, Its timed and tactful overflows, Its firmly regulated glows, Its exemplary pain;.
