Excerpt from Autumn Leaves A Master Great there is that all His spirits taught, And tuned all human hearts to His grand harmony; The elements of Nature tuned He like a harp, - And hurling o'er them storms and gales and thunderbolts, Still sings His Great Song soft and diapason-like. Mankind, - alas! heeds not its blithesome, mellow theme. - From the Polish of Adam Mickiewicz. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
