Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Constantinople, the Isle of Pearls: And Other Poems
Comes there no sound adown the waste of years To strike the dreamer's ear 9 no muf?ed wail, The dying notes of ages long expired?
What mean the marble fragments strewed around Like whitening sculls upon a battle-plain?
