A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Take any of the sons our A ge has nursed, Fed with her food and taught her best arid worst; Suppose no great disaster; look not nigh On hidden hours of his extremity ;B ut watch him like the flickering magnet stirred By each imponderable look and word, And think how firm a courage every day He needs to bear him on lifes common way, Since even at the best his spirit moves Thro 1such a tourney of conflicting loves, Unwisely sought, untruly called untrue ;B eloved and hated and beloved anew; Till in the changing whirl of praise and blame He feels himself the same and not the same, And often, overworn and overwon, Knows all a dream and wishes all were done. I know it, such an one these eyes have seen A bout the world, with his unworldly mien, And often idly hopeless, often bentO nsome tumultuous deed aud vehement, Because his spirit he can nowise fitT othe worlds ways and settled rule of it, But thro contented thousands travels on Like a sad heir in disinherison, And rarely by great thought or brave emprise Comes out above his lifes perplexities, Looks through the rifted cloudland, and sees clear Fate at his feet and the high God anear: FREDERIC W. H. MYERS.
