Excerpt from Waltham Thickets: And Other PoemsHe never saw his life's last evening burn, But by his madness has he been so near, That very little space remained to turn.Now thou upon his coming grace confer, He follows Freedom, she that is so dear, As that man knows who gives his life for her.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
