Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stray Leaves and Fragments This Life. Struggling and pushing, wrangling and strife; Methinks this indeed is a strange, busy life. If anyone doubts it, to him let me say: Walk out in New York at noon some fine day. On Broadway, or the Battery - go through Fulton street, Or anywhere else down-town, - and you´ll meet Such wrangling and pushing, such struggle and strife; You´ll then say with me - ´tis a strange, busy life. Go, stand on the Bridge, and look down at the crowd, And list to the din so fearfully loud; - While old Sol throws his rays in fierce, burning heat, O´er the hurrying masses, now thronging the street. Just look at the horses, the ´busses, the drays: All in collision, they block up the ways. - Then, I´m sure you´ll aggree, ´tis a strange, busy life, Full of wrangling and pushing, of struggle and strife. Why rush on so madly - why hurry so fast? Their days are all numbered and soon will be past. But, tho´ thousands die yearly, I still must confess - The crowds look to-day not a single one less. Oh, where are they now, the thousands long gone? And where will they go, the thousands unborn? - Who will yet come, to live through this strange, busy life, Full of wrangling and pushing, of struggle and strife?
