Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ealien and Lenard; Or the Shadow of a Prophecy: An Epic Poem The subjoined poem is a poetical narrative by a young friend, a companion, whom I was fortunate in meeting in one of the rural districts situate in the middle counties of England. Being at that time in quest of places having historical connections, or otherwise replete with traditional importance, I was but too eager to take advantage of my young friend as guide on his invitation to visit the Forest of S - , where, as he described, we found a cave or grotto-like structure that saliently raised its jagged head of stone. Deep in the density of the forest, yet strange, this cave was environed even in the midst of that luxuriant place by a circular track or terrace of soil exhibiting a sterility surprising - so bare, so barren, that not one vestige of anything pertaining to botanical life seemed manifest there. "This," my friend explained, "was what was known as ´The Cave of the Sorceress."´ Becoming interested in the place and its weirdness, I importuned my companion to relate to me such of its history as he was conversant with. At my solicitation he replied in the affirmative, but cautioned as to my tolerance, as the story, he said, connected with the cave was of considerable length, but assured me that it bore many items of interest which he felt confident would furnish me with food for thought.
