Excerpt from Abraham Kimball: A MedleyPrelude.I cannot hesitate to threadThe future maze, that ever dropsIts curtain on men's sight, and stopsThe feet of countless souls, who dreadThe issues of the time to come, Nor I, in thoughtlessness of timeThat was, and of its worth sublime, Dare count its sacred counsels dumb.The old time lives and walks with me, In quest, the path to things unknown, Nor I, in arrogance, disownThe footprints that with mine agree, And, seeking thus, with earnest eyes, Along a worn and hallowed way, Old time with cheer beguiles the day, When morning breaks, till evening dies.Old hopes and expectations blendIn mine, the pledge of future years, Time past, that constancy endears, Was, is, and shall be helper, friend.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
