Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Prickly Pear Blossoms What I See, And What I Think. I see in church a smooth-tonged priest His congregation´s alms implore For ´nighted heathen doomed to rest In ignorance on Afric´s shore; Soon ev´ry eye is filled with tears, And ev ry plate with gold replete, - I think of th´ awful oaths one hears From drunkards in this very street. I see within a field a crowd Around a man of oily face, "I´ve got a call!" he cries aloud, And calls himself a "Child of Grace," And vows that all who dare gainsay His creed for Hell are surely bound - I think about the donkey´s bray That greets me from th´ adjacent pound. I see a duchess seek in state St. James´s, upon drawing-room days, A coronet decks her brow elate, On either hand bright jewels blaze; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
