Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Temple of Memory The Temple of Memory. Canto I. Prelude. Or temples and their wonders poets sing, Who through past ages oft their flight will wing Towards Egypt and the ancient domes of Nile, To Tibur´s banks or the Ægean Isle. What do not men there measure, scan, describe? What will not then explain each learned scribe? Karnac or Ammon the first temple built After the Deluge consequent on guilt, - Great Temple of the Pharoahs - this they know, And Dandour in the Nubian deserts low, No less Dracontia and the Pyramids, Which last to class with temples nought forbids; To others monolithic do they speed, Their sculptured forms and strange inscriptions read, To Balbec and Palmyra where the sun Was worshipp´d once, nor would they e´er have done Till that of Belus they beheld still lower Where once had stood famed Babels haughty tower.
