Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Mrs. Hemans, Vol. 5 of 6: With a Memoir of Her Life The old familiar melodies that rose At break of morn, from all our purple hills, To welcome in the vintage. Never since Hath music seem dso sweet. But the light hearts Which to those measures beat so joyously, Are tamed to stillness now. There is no voice Of joy through all the land. 2d Pea. Yes! there are sounds Of revelry within the palaces, And the fair castles of our ancient lords, Where now the stranger banquets. Ye may hear, From thence the peals of song and laughter rise At midnights deepest hour. 3d Pea. Alas! we sat, In happier days, so peacefully beneath The olives and the vines our fathers rear´d, Encircled by our children, whose quick steps Flew by us in the dance! The time hath been When peace was in the hamlet, wheresoeer The storm might gather. But this yoke of France Falls on the peasant´s neck as heavily As on the crested chieftains. We are bow´d E´en to the earth. Pea´s Child. My father, tell me when Shall the gay dance and song again resound Amidst our chestnut-woods, as in those days Of which thou´rt wont to tell the joyous tale? 1st Pea. When there are light and reckless hearts once more In Sicily´s green vales. Alas! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
