Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Queen, and Other Poems The Century that to the grave is gone, Whose birth was fear, confusion, and lament, Parted in joy, beholding ere it went High jubilee of happy Albion. Another step of Time's long stair is won O'er widening life an ampler prospect lent; New morning streams o'er isle and continent; Where is the glorious Light that was our Sun? Yet, Britain mine, though chie y o'er thy coasts The all-eclipsing shade broods dim and blind, And tears more sad from springs more sacred ow, Thine is but one among the mourning hosts. Thy sorrow is the sorrow of mankind, And the wide world is darker for thy woe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
