Book Description
Excerpt from A Biographical Memoir of the Late Sir Peter Parker, Baronet, Captain of His Majesty's Ship Menelaus, of 38 Guns, Killed in Action While Storming the American Camp at Bellair, Near Baltimore, on the Thirty-First of August, 1814 Fame is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise (That last infirmity of noble mind) To scorn delights, and live laborious days. But the fair guerdon when we hope to find, And think to burst out into sudden blaze, Comes the dread fury with th' abhorred shears And slits the thin-spun Life. Milt. Lye. L. 70. When individuals, animated by a laudable desire of fame, turn from the attractive influence of domestic case, to devote their lives to danger, in the pursuit of glory, and seal with their pure blood the triumphs of their country, it is the province of the biographer to weave for them the wreath of unfading renown, by consigning their actions to the reverence of time. The lives of such men nurture, by their example, the heroic passions of the soul. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
