A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Thrice hast thou met me in the secret hour, Calling my name, and yet thyself unknown ;T hrice hath the daysprings love-disturbing power Crept through the night, and found us all alone ;A nd many times (thyself canst count them best) Upon thy lips my passion hath been pressed. Yet dost thou, like some deity of old, Whose form was wrapped in bright celestial mist, Still shroud thyself; mine eyes may scarce behold Even the lips which I so oft have kissed. Conceal thyself no longer ;let me see At last the face of my divinity. As rush the tides when Autumn winds are high, So rushed the crimson to her listening brow ;A sthey retire and leave the sands all dry, So fled that blush, and left her cheek like snow ;T hen love cast out the fear that held her dumb, I will not doubt, she said ;the time is come.
