Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Orlando Furioso, Vol. 6 The Orlando Furioso. Canto XXXI. I. What sweeter, gladder, state could be possest Than falls to the enamoured bosom´s share? What happier mode of life, what lot more blest, Than evermore the chains of love to wear? Were not the lover, ´mid his joys, distrest By that suspicious fear, that cruel care, That martyrdom, which racks the suffering sprite, That phrensied rage, which jealousy is hight. II. For by all bitters else which interpose Before enjoyment of this choicest sweet, Love is augmented, to perfection grows, And takes a finer edge; to drink and eat, Hunger and thirst the palate so dispose, And flavour more our beverage and our meat. Feebly that wight can estimate the charms Of peace, who never knew the pain of arms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
