Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sketches in Prose and Verse My Treasures Clusters of sea-born treasures, lucid and clear of mote, Set in grasp of golden rims to clasp some fairy throat, Jewels gleaming with lustre-light, I fain to you had brought, But I searched in vain, and so I bring only gems oi thought, - Only treasures of heart and mind, gleaming with light, ´tis true; And yet, perchance, you´d rather wear the gems I sought for you. There was a Roman mother, when Rome in riches rolled, And wealth outpoured its treasures in splendor uncontrolled, Who folded to her heart her sons, and said in queenly tone. "These are my only treasures, these the gems I own; These are my only treasures," then smiled and went her way. Rome owned no purer gem than this mother´s heart that day.
