Mackay, George Eric: Dante - ZaunköniG - 13.11.2010 George Eric Mackay 1851-1898 Großbritannien Dante He liv'd and lov'd; he suffer'd; he was poor; But he was gifted with the gifts of Heaven, And those of all the week-days that are seven, And those of all the centuries that endure. <he bow'd to none; he kept his honour sure. He follow'd in the wake of those Eleven Who walk'd with Christ, and lifted up his steven To keep the bulwarks of his faith secure. He knew the secrets of the singing-time; He track'd the sun; he ate the luscious fruit Of grief and joy; and with his wonder-lute He made himself a name in every clime. The minds of men were madly stricken mute, And all the world lay subjekt to his rhyme! |
