Book Description

Excerpt from The British Critic, Quarterly Theological Review, and Ecclesiastical Record, Vol. 4: October, 1827 As a tall ship tossed in tronhlous seas, W'hom raging winds, threatening to make the prey Of the rough rocks, do diversly disease, Meets two contrary billowes by the way, That her on either side do sore assay, And boast to swallow her in greedy grave; She, scorning both their spights, does make wide way, And with her breast breaking the fomy wave, Does ride on both their backs, and fair herself doth save. Faery Queene, b. Ii. Canto 2. St. 24. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
