Book Description
Excerpt from Orpheus in Thrace, and Other Poems Orpheus in Thrace. All breathing men have trouble of their day. Fate and the gods abhor prosperity For us who live the wasting of an hour. Yet I, that Orpheus, whose sole craft is song, The mortal son of the immortal muse, Claim to have vanquished all competitors; In endless desolation held supreme, I bear the palm of sorrow's thorny road. Man's common grief to my imperial pain Seems like a puny gnat that pricks the skin, Beside a python crushing in his coils The very bones to pulp, a broken heap; Seems as a ripple to a cataract, Seems as a dew-bead to a planet sphere.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact.
