Excerpt from A Book of VersesAnd pine and droop and wither to a thing That fools may jeer at? Wilt thou live in dream Of joys that were and shall not be again? Wilt thou go puling, wailing, all thy days For that which youth possessed and time hath taken? Nay, but I seek with years a clearer vision, A growth from strength to strength, with ever yet Some new thing to be won. Better the feast Of Tantalus than a surfeit. Let me still Bring passion and desire and hungering.Let me not be condemned to vain fulfilment, A tedious winning of the goods I crave!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
