Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lyrics of Horace: Done Into English Rhyme I. To Mæcenas Mæcenas, son of a kingly line, Thou guardian angel and glory mine, There are lords of the land who for ever must In their racing-cars gather Olympian dust, Where the post they graze in their wheels´ hot speed, And the bliss of the gods is the winner´s meed. This man, if the changeable people´s voice Proclaim him again and again their choice, Lives happy; and that, if his own barn doors Shut on all that men garner from Libyan floors. The farmer, who tills in the joy of health His ancestors´ acres, not Attalus´ wealth Could tempt in a Cyprian barque to be A sailor, and plough the Myrtoan sea. Whilst the south wind battles with Icarus´ waves, The calm of his township the trader craves; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
