Book Description
Excerpt from Marino Faliero: A Tragedy To Aurelio Saffi. I. Year after year has fallen on sleep, till change Hath seen the fourth part of a century fade, Since you, a guest to whom the vales were strange Where Isis whispers to the murmuring shade Above her face by winds and willows made, And I, elate at heart with reverence, met. Change must give place to death ere I forget The pride that change of years has quenched not yet. II. Pride from profoundest humbleness of heart Born, self-uplift at once and self-subdued, Glowed, seeing his face whose hand had borne such part In so sublime and strange vicissitude As then filled all faint hearts with hope renewed To think upon, and triumph; though the time Were dense and foul with darkness cast from crime Across the heights that hope was fain to climb.

Book Description
Excerpt from The City of Dreadful Night: And Other Poems Because a cold rage seizes one at whiles To show the bitter old and wrinkled truth Stripped naked of all vesture that beguiles, False dreams, false hopes, false masks and modes of youth; Because it gives some sense of power and passion In helpless impotence to try to fashion Our woe in living words howe'er uncouth. Surely I write not for the hopeful young, Or those who deem their happiness of worth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
