Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Solitary Musings Solitary Musing. In Sight of mount Vernon. Down the Potomac´s broad and ample wave, We float along in silence, for behold! The Home of one whose name hath filled the world: Of Washington! Who hath not heard of him? Embosom´d in the pomp of leafy woods It stands; a quiet home, yet draws all eyes To gaze upon it, and with reverence. Even the rude boatman ceases with his oar To trouble the calm waters, and so break That hallowed stillness; and the restless winds Are hush´d to sleep; while the declining sun Glides gently from our sight, its latest beams Darting in splendour from behind the grove Which overlooks his grave. A simple mound of nature´s purest green Contains his sacred dust; - yet pilgrim feet "From the four corners of the earth still come" To pay their homage there. There late He stood, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
