Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Tragedies of Algernon Charles Swinburne, Vol. 3 of 5 Ormiston I doubt you did not well; ´Tis of such stuff that time makes talebearers. Bothwell I would not strike him for old service´ sake, Were he more dangerous to me; but, God help, What hurt here can he do us? I tell you, sirs, I think my star that was not swift to rise But hung this long time strangled in dead cloud Is even by this a fire in heaven, and hath The heat and light in it of this dead man´s That it hath drunk up as a dew-drop drawn Into the red mid heat of its own heart; And ye that walk by light of it shall stand With morning on the footless mountain-tops Crowned. Hepburn There are crags yet slippery to be clomb And scaurs to rend their knees and feet who rise. Bothwell I have my hand here on the throat of time, And hold mine hour of fortune by the hair. Had I let slip this season I had fallen Naked and sheer to break myself on death, A cragsman crushed at the cliff´s foot; but now Chance cannot trip me, if I look not down And let mine eye swim back among slain fears To reckon up dead dangers; but I look High up as is the light, higher than your eyes, Beyond all eagles´ aeries, to the sun.
