Synopsis

A sweeping narrative poem in verse that reimagines the Flight into Egypt, blending biblical reverie with lush, historic language. A richly textured collection that follows the Holy Family through sacred and perilous landscapes, weaving drama, devotion, and turning insights into a lyrical journey across three books and a series of minor poems.

This edition presents a vivid, feature-filled text that blends narrative adventure with devotional reflection. Readers will encounter dramatic scenes, contemplative moments, and evocative imagery as the poets traverse ancient settings and human emotions alike. The verses invite reflection on faith, courage, and mercy, wrapped in a tradition of elaborate, sometimes ceremonial rhetoric.




  • Epic storytelling through canto-by-canto chapters that chart the journey from Nazareth to safety.

  • Interwoven minor poems that expand themes of nature, awe, and moral reckonings.

  • Character-driven scenes that spotlight Joseph, Mary, and a vivid cast of companions and adversaries.

  • A lyrical suite that blends historical atmosphere with timeless spiritual questions.



Ideal for readers who enjoy poetic adaptations of biblical narratives, historical romance, and richly textured verse that foreground both action and inner life.

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.
