Читать книгу Pilots of the Purple Twilight - Philip Henry Godsell - Страница 5

“For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,

Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.

Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails,

Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down with costly bales;

Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rain’d a ghastly dew

From the nations’ airy navies grappling in the central blue.”

Tennyson, Locksley Hall.
