Book synopsis

Excerpt from Fifty Poems Fifty Poems I Thanksgiving To whom be thanks? To them whose sorrow I Perforce did share, though their bright fortitude I could not share: To them chief thanks, whose half-suppress'd low sigh Taught me the bitterness of solitude I could not bear. And unto them be thanks, those poor who showed How cheerfully and plaintless men may live; For whom to die Were but to lose an unsustainable load, Since barren life scarce even bread could give Them to live by. And unto you, poor lost ones evil-starr'd, Who taught me all your evil, and taught then Its impotence; To you be thanks, by weak regret unmarr'd; For how should I ever o'erprize again Your lures of sense? But you, O poets of the living word. And you, magicians of rich melodies. How should I pay About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
