Présentation de l'éditeur

The Indies seas resplendent, sapphire-bright: The coral lands where Nature ever smiles, Where summer reigns, throned on a thousand isles, Crowned as befits the queen of life and light. The tropic sun a fire which knows no wane, Uplifting life in opulence sublime, In endless wealth; the eminent domain Of life spontaneous from creations prime! Clad in rich tints or robed in fiery hues I ts myriad forms in plant, in fruit, and flower; Munificence supreme; supremest power Revealed in never-wearying love profuse. The sum unspeakable, and soul and sense Gaze wonder-bound before Omnipotence! As neighboring trees all blossom-laden rest Mid the rose-haze of summers sultry day, So lie those isles upon the sun-flushed breast Of southern seas where spicy breezes play.
