Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Greatness of Josiah Porlick "Goddess," he cried, "thou knowest my stainless youth, The days and nights spent in thy hallowed shrine, Fame, power, and riches, say in very truth, Shall these be mine?" "Yea" she made answer, "these shall all be thine." Broken and aged, before the appointed span, Fame, power, and riches crowded round his gate: His neighbours envied - "Lo! the happy man, Rich, wise, and great." He only moaned, "Alas! ye come too late;" And railed against the Goddess whose decrees Had cheated his ambition at the goal. "Fool," answered she, "that wouldst for things like these Barter thy soul, And seeking half life´s good, hast lost the whole."
