Excerpt from The Works of Thomas Love Peacock, Vol. 3 of 3 From the Italian of Guacini "Oh Primavera, gioventu del anno," &c. Youth of the year! celestial spring! Again descend thy silent showers; New loves, new pleasures dost thou bring, And earth again looks gay with flowers. Dark winter's chilling storms are flown, All nature hails thy reign with gladness, All nature smiles, save I alone, The victim of eternal sadness. Thy rosy smiles, all-cheering spring, In vain to welcome I endeavour: They but the sad remembrance bring Of joys which I have lost for ever! February 1,1803 The Monks Of St. Mark. (Written in 1804.) Tis midnight: the sky is with clouds overcast; The forest-trees bend in the loud-rushing blast; The rain strongly beats on these time-hallowed spires; The lightning pours swiftly its blue-pointed fires; Triumphant the tempest-fiend rides in the dark, And howls round the old abbey-walls of St. Mark! The thunder, whose roaring the trav'ller appals, Seems as if with the ground it would level the walls: But in vain pours the storm-king this horrible rout; The uproar within drowns the uproar without; For the friars, with Bacchus, not Satan, to grapple, The refect'ry have met in, instead of the chapel. 'Stead of singing Te Deums, on ground-pressing knees, They were piously bawling songs, catches, and glees: About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
