H. Rider Haggard Quotes
It Was A Wonderful Thing To Think For How Many Thousands Of Years The Dead Orb Above And The Dead City Below Had Gazed Thus Upon Each Other, And In The Utter Solitude Of Space Poured Forth Each To Each The Tale Of Their Lost Life And Long-departed Glory. The White Light Fell, And Minute By Minute The Quiet Shadows Crept Across The Grass-grown Courts Like The Spirits Of Old Priests Haunting The Habitations Of Their Worship
the White Light Fell, And The Long Shadows Grew Till The Beauty And Grandeur Of Each Scene And The Untamed Majesty Of Its Present Death Seemed To Sink Into Our Very Souls, And Speak More Loudly Than The Shouts Of Armies Concerning The Pomp And Splendour That The Grave Had Swallowed, And Even Memory Had Forgotten.
