SHAKESPEARE - ZaunköniG - 09.08.2014 SHAKESPEARE EVEN as the sea that sips perpetual rain, And drinks a world of waters in a night, Returning these along the golden chain Sped down from heaven on the wings of light, Till in the soundless fields of crystal space Huge bastions of unsullied clouds are seen, Each resting on its silver-burnished base Above bare hills that wait the vernal sheen ; Instinct with fire, and such harmonious breath As murmurs in the music of a shower, Or thunders when the angry stops of death Crash open and reveal their tragic power So Shakespeare's universal mind was filled, And thus through him a brighter world distilled. |
