Excerpt from Manfred: A Dramatic Poem
And none have baffled, many fallen before me But this avail'd not - Good, or evil, life, Powers, passions, all I see in other beings, Have been to me as rain unto the sands.

Excerpt from Manfred: A Dramatic Poem
Manfred.
Philosophy and science, and the springs
Of wonder, and the wisdom of the world,
I have essayed, and in my mind there is
A power to make these subject to itself -
But they avail not: I have done men good,
And I have met with good even among men -
But this avail'd not: I have had my foes,
And none have baffled, many fallen before me -
But this avail'd not: - Good, or evil, life,
Powers, passions, all I see in other beings,
Have been to me as rain unto the sands,
Since that all-nameless hour. I have no dread,
And feel the curse to have no natural fear,
Nor fluttering throb, that beats with hopes or wishes,
Or lurking love of something on the earth. -
Now to my task. -
Mysterious Agency!
Ye spirits of the unbounded Universe!
Whom I have sought in darkness and in light -
Ye, who do compass earth about, and dwell
In subtler essence - ye, to whom the tops
Of mountains inaccessible are haunts,
And earth's and ocean's caves familiar things -
I call upon ye by the written charm

Librería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exquisite narrative poem in dramatic form by Lord Byron, widely considered one of the major Romantic poets. With Manfred, Byron gave a new dimension to the Faustian legend, endowing his hero with a depth of intellect, despair, and sense of isolation that have made him one of the most compelling figures in all of literature. The poem explores themes of guilt, suffering, and the pursuit of forbidden knowledge, with Manfred's relentless quest for answers and his ultimate redemption offering a profound meditation on the human condition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
