Book Description

Excerpt from The Omnipresence of the Deity: A Poem 'Tis midnight: from unnumber'd shadowy spires Funereal wails for the departing day Arise, as from a host of yawning tombs; Awhile the pealing echoes float around, Then faintly ebb upon the breezy air, And wind away into the starry skies. There is a voiceless melancholy that wakes The heart's mysterious chords, until they stir Like air, by music charm'd, when on the verge Of Time's unfathom'd gulf, the dying hours Drop into dark eternity! - A Day Is dead! and with it, many a breathing shape Of life, shall breathe no more. Many an eye, That smil'd upon the morn, is film'd and cold; About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
