The Sisters: A Tragedy

Excerpt from The Sisters: A TragedyWhere thought held life and dream in equipoise, Even now make child and boy and man seem one, And days that dawned beneath the last year's sun As days that even ere childhood died were done.The sun to sport in and the cliffs to scale, The sea to clasp and wrestle with, till breath For rapture more than weariness would fail, All-golden gifts of dawn, whose record saith That time nor change may turn their life to death, Live not in loving thought alone, though there The life they live be lovelier than they were When clothed in present light and actual air.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
