Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Belle of Bowling Green Prologue O shades of respectable Vans! O Livingstons, Kennedys, Jays! Lend me your names to conjure with, And bring back the fine old days - When the trade and wealth of the city Lay snugly the rivers between, And the homes of its merchant princes, Were built round the Bowling Green. Here´s to the homes that are past! Here´s to the men that have been! Here´s to the heart of New York, That beats on the Bowling Green! Here´s to the men who could meet Mockers and doubters, with smiles; And planning for centuries hence, Lay out their city by miles. It has spread far out to the North, It has spread to the East and the West, Though the men who saw it in dreams, Now sleep in old Trinity´s breast. Here´s to the homes that are past! Here´s to the men that have been! Here´s to the heart of New York, That beats on the Bowling Green! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
