Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leisure Hours: A Thing of Shreds and Patches Leisure Hours. The Return. Land of my childhood, happy land, once more My footsteps tread thy wild romantic shore; Once more thy mountains, tow´ring to the skies, Thy "cloud capp´d" hills, before my view arise; Once more along thy burnies´ sides I rove, List to the warbling songsters of the grove, Or tread the mazes of the wooded glen, Far from the noisy haunts of busy men. Yes, lovely scenes, unchanged ye still remain, Your beauty still ye favour´d haunts retain! But where are they who ever used to be Partakers with me in my boyish glee? Who clamber´d with me up the mountain steep, Who with me braved the dangers of the deep; Advent´rous souls, who o´er the rush-bound lake, In tiny bark would dare the voyage make; Who nimbly with me up the rocks have sprung, To rob the blackbird of her unfledged young; Or pillaged oft, ´mid merriment and glee, The village lawyer´s or the parson´s tree? Time has been busy; Ah! how busy here: My play-hour cronies and companions dear About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
