Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems by Colin Tolly: Horizons at Dawn and at Dusk
This semicircle in the wooded slopes Of Mount Parnassus holds in its embrace The oracle and shrine towards which vain hopes Of foresight, heavenly wisdom, lured the race For ages. Pythia mounts the tripod Tropes Resound The God 's in her ecstatic face Vast sky-roof'd golden temples rise, which wonders Divine oft guard. But Time ev'n Delphi plunders.
