[Price Sixpence.] - - - - - A - - POEM - - ON THE - - EARTHQUAKE - - AT - - _LISBON_. - - - Calm was the Sky, the Sun serenely bright, - Shot o’er the Sea long dazzling Streams of Light. - Thro’ Orange Groves soft breathing Breezes play’d, - And gather’d Sweets like Bees where e’er they stray’d. - In fair Relievo stood the lofty Town, 5 - Set off by radiant Lights and Shadows brown; - While ev’ry Dome, each Cupola and Spire, - Shone doubly gilt by the Sun’s lambent Fire. - And where beneath, the Silver _Tagus_ flow’d, - In many a stately Row tall Vessels rode; 10 - So smooth it flow’d that all the various View, - Reflected there, was downward seen anew, - And as it softly stole along the Plain, - Carry’d a floating Landskip to the Main. - - Within the Town gay Crowds were seen to stray, 15 - While full Processions grac’d the festive Day. - Mechanicks by their honest Labour fed, - With chearful Visage earn’d their daily Bread; - Misers were counting o’er their ill-got Store, - But not contented meditating more. 20 - Spendthrifts were just awak’d from Golden Dreams; - Projectors were inventing Lottery Schemes; - Merchants were storing Goods from _India_ brought; - Clients were selling Lands which Lawyers bought. - Behold a Youth, and sitting by his Side, 25 - A Damsel new-betroth’d, his destin’d Bride; - Around them throngs a Train of Virgins gay, - Preparing Garments for the Marriage-day. - Alas!--And now rings out the Matin Bell, - The pious Matron issuing from her Cell, 30 - Inspir’d by true Devotion joins the Crowd, - And aw’d with Reverence seeks the House of God; - There humbly prostrate kneels upon the Ground-- - Happy the Few that watching so are sound! - - Ill-fated City! there were Revels kept, 35 - Devoid of Fear, they eat, they drank, they sleep’d. - No friendly Voice like that of antient _Rome_, - Was sent to give them Warning of their Doom: - No Airy Warriours to each other clung, - Such as ’tis said o’er destin’d _Sion_ hung; 40 - But like a nightly Thief their dreadful Fate, - Unlook’d for came and undermin’d their State. - - For with a sudden Shock the solid Ground, - In dreadful Waves came rolling all around; - Not those rough Seas beneath the frozen Pole, 45 - Impell’d by Winds, more furious Billows roll. - Earth’s Womb was heard to groan with hollow Roar, - The Dwellings trembled--but Men trembled more. - Aghast they reel like Drunkards here and there, - And all distracted fly they know not where. 50 - Destruction drives them from their dear Abodes, - And where their Safety was, fell Ruin nodds. - Husbands are here seen pressing thro’ the Throng, - Nor know they drag their clinging Wives along. - Coy Virgins of their Lovers once afraid, 55 - Now hang on Strangers Necks and court their Aid. - And there a ghastly Group of Women see! - A Picture of the Ghosts they soon must be, - Wringing their Hands, sad solemn Silence keep, - While Infants wonder why their Mothers weep. 60 - - And now a Moment’s Pause, Fate’s Heralds lend, - A dreadful Pause like that when Time shall end. - - Lo what a sudden Change! On Ruin’s Brink, - The Proud turn humble, and the Thoughtless think. 65 - Dark gloomy Sadness overclouds the Gay, - And Hypocrites for once sincerely pray. - In their own proper Shapes now Crimes appear, - For Danger touching like _Ithuriel_’s Spear, - Does by its Power the fatal Magic end; 70 - Down falls the Vizor, and upstarts the Fiend! - Atheists no longer can themselves deceive, - And now too late they tremble and believe. - But the good Man looks boldly on his Fate, - Alone unshaken in a shaking State. 75 - Again the Storm with double Fury rolls, - And from the dreadful Deeps the Tempest howls. - With thicker Throws now groans the lab’ring Earth, - The sure Fore-runners of the fatal Birth. 80 - The City loosen’d with repeated Shocks, - Now to and fro from her Foundations rocks. - Amaz’d, confounded, of all Sense bereft, - The shipwreck’d Souls behold their Vessels cleft. - Down from on high the shatter’d Tacklings rush, 85 - And big with rattling Ruin Thousands crush. - There gapes the vast Abyss with hideous Roar, - And in its Entrails swallows Thousands more. - Where should they run for Help? the gushing Tide - Breaks in above, below, on every Side: 90 - From Danger unto Danger they retreat, - And while they shun one Death, another meet. - - So Mariners, _Charybdis’_ Rock to shun, - Have into _Sylla_’s Whirlpools headlong run. - But they between those Rocks and Pools might steer; 95 - Ten Thousand Rocks and Whirlpools threaten here. - - For those that ’scap’d the Caverns gaping wide, - In endless Night the falling Ruins hide; - And those the Ruins had denied a Tomb, - The Fires on Funeral Piles alive consume. 100 - - Lo! where the Gulphs wide yawning round the Town, - In swiftest Eddies drink the River down, - With it the Navy down impetuous flies, - And to the Centre a new Passage tries. - - Horror and Desolation you’d no more! - And now that once fair Town with all her Store, 105 - And ev’ry Soul that hail’d the rising Day, - Heaving in Death like one vast Body lay. - - The Fires, that glimm’ring still with pale’y Red, - Like Burial Tapers, nodded o’er the Dead, 110 - Performing the last Office, as they wave, - Add Dust and Ashes to the gen’ral Grave. - - Lo! the good King from out the ruin’d Heaps, - By Providence divine, like _Lot_, escapes; 115 - But _Lot_’s Command, while yet the City burn’d, - The weeping King had disobey’d and turn’d: - There in Salt Tears congeal’d, he fix’d had staid, - And, like the Woman, a new Pillar made: - Forbid his dear _Eurydice_ to view, - Like _Orpheus_ he had look’d and perish’d too. 120 - - Viewing the dreadful Havock, sore he griev’d, - And his sad Heart within his Bosom heav’d: - Tow’rs, Houses, Palaces, all sunk to Ground, - Ev’n God’s own Fanes in the dry Deluge drown’d! - Like _Noah_ plac’d on _Ararat_ he stood, 125 - And wail’d Mankind, while round him roll’d the Flood. - But yet resign’d to that all pow’rful Sway, - That kills and saves, that gives and takes away, - Like _Job_ he griev’d, like _Job_ he kiss’d the Rod, - And own’d the Justice of his angry God. 130 - - Slowly retiring thus with mournful Eye, - _Anchises’_ Son beheld his burning _Troy_: - By their own horrid Light while Temples shone, - When Dwellings, Friends, and Treasures all were gone, - The pious Prince resign’d, the Loss endures, 135 - And safe within his Breast his Gods secures. - - From every Port there Merchants flock’d for Wealth, - Poor pining Patients thither flew for Health: - In vain the Lungs decay’d their Tone resume; - In vain the Cheek regains it’s faded Bloom. 140 - Of what Avail are now those wholesome Skies? - For what its Air restor’d, its Earth destroys; - And those whom for another Fate prepar’d, - The short Catarrh and wheezing Asthma spar’d: - Like fatted Victims drest with Garlands gay, 145 - The general Consumption sweeps away. - - But let it not be thought, their horrid Deeds - Had pull’d this dreadful Judgment on their Heads; - Or that for Crimes too horrible to tell, - Like guilty _Sodom_ Thunderstruck they fell; 150 - Or like presumptuous _Dathan_: Other Climes - Afford as frequent and as flagrant Crimes. - But when o’er all Degeneracy prevails, - And on the Minds grown callous Precept fails; - Where only the least vicious are the best, 155 - Some must be made Examples to the rest. - The Chance was their’s----but why to them ’twas giv’n, - Remains among the Mysteries of Heav’n; - Which hides its Secrets from our erring Sense; - For Chance on Earth in Heav’n is Providence. 160 - - As when to some Frontier by slow Blockade, - And silent Sap, a sure Approach is made, - If skilful Miners can their Chamber set, - Under some Ravelin, Horn-work, or Lunette, - The starting Pile a loud Explosion tears, 165 - And all aloof the shatter’d Fragments bears; - Stones, Arms, and blasted Guards together fly, - And scatter’d round in one great Ruin lie: - While those who neighbouring Bastions maintain, - With Grief behold their Fellow-Soldiers slain; 170 - Conscious of equal Guilt, none e’er presum’d - To think for greater Crimes they first were doom’d; - But thankful that so long themselves are spar’d, - With double Vigilance they stand prepar’d.---- - - So may the World----For now by dreadful Bands, 175 - Lo the wide Universe invested stands! - Winds, Flames, and Sulphur in her Bowels lurk, - And in her hidden Chambers secret work. - In this great Siege the Crown-works and Lunettes - Are spacious Provinces and wealthy States; 180 - Mountains her Curtains, Seas her Ditches are, - And mighty Kingdoms are the Bastions there: - And lo! where springs the Mine! the Mine of Fate! - And in wide rushing Ruins whelms a State! - - Let none here deem this bold poetic Strain, 185 - A wild unreal Fiction of the Brain. - Who can with curious Eye this Globe survey, - And not behold it tott’ring with Decay; - All Things created God’s Designs fulfill, - And nat’ral Causes work his destin’d Will. 190 - And that eternal Word which cannot lie, - To Mortals hath reveal’d in Prophecy, - That in these latter Days such Signs should come, - Preludes and Prologues to the gen’ral Doom. - But not the Son of Man can tell that Day; 195 - Then, left it find you sleeping, watch and pray! - - Ye silent Tenants of the dreary Deep, - Whom rocking Nature lull’d to your last Sleep, - And all the while rung out your passing Bell, - Amidst the Ruins, tolling as it fell. 200 - Ye who from Earth so hastily withdrew, - That in your Deaths ye found your Burials too. - Whom yet your Friends attended to your Grave, - While flaming Piles instead of Torches wave. - Dark Caves your State instead of sable Rooms. 205 - And nodding Tow’rs instead of nodding Plumes.-- - - Yet shall the Muses dress with Flowers your Bier, - And o’er your Grave a Monument shall rear, - Bearing the mournful Tale to after Age. - Lo where in _AEtna_’s Womb the _Grecian_ Sage, 210 - Plunging a voluntary Death endures, - And seeks a Fate to find a Fame like yours; - But more than _AEtna_’s Flames your Relicts burn, - Your Pile’s a Continent, a Realm your Urn. - And see, a weeping World in solemn State, 215 - Sad, silent following mourns your hapless Fate! - - Now the too deeply plough’d and furrow’d Earth - No Harvest yields, but feels a sudden Dearth; - Like _Canaan_ blasted sinks beneath her Woes, - And now no more with Milk and Honey flows. 220 - When lo, _Britannia_ stretching forth her Hand, - With kind Supply relieves the famish’d Land. - Long may the sacred Gold those Temples bind, - Where _Pharaoh_’s Power is us’d with _Joseph_’s Mind! - His Brethren their great Preserver bless, 225 - (To good Minds all are Brethren in Distress) - And while they feast upon the welcome Gains, - In each Man’s Sack the Price untouch’d remains. - - Oh Ground and Source of ev’ry social Tye! - Soft soothing Balm of Grief, and Soul of Joy! 230 - Fair Charity, thou Bond ’twixt Great and Small, - Bright universal Medium joining all! - Strong Chain that ties the Cottage to the Throne, - Still rising till it links the THREE IN ONE; - By thee, while yet on Earth thy Foot remains, 235 - Ascending Angels mount the Ætherial Plains. - By thee inspir’d our good _Samaritan_, - (Great in the Monarch, greater in the Man!) - A helpless People robb’d and bleeding sound, - Pour’d out thy sacred Oil, and heal’d their Wound. 240 - - And when, on op’ning of the Sixth great Seal, - With her last Earthquake this round World shall reel, - The Sun shall lose his Fires in endless Night, - And the Moon turn’d to Blood glare horrid Light, - When Comets dire shall sweep athwart the Sky, 245 - And Stars like Leaves before the Tempest fly; - When fervent Heat the Elements shall burn, - And like a Furnace Earth to Ashes turn, - And all the Heavens in that dreadful Day, - Like to a Scroll roll’d up shall pass away---- 250 - When the Seventh Angel his last Trump shall found, - And those whom God hath seal’d in _Myriad_’s Round, - Shall raise to Heav’n the universal Song, - And _Brunswick_ ’mong the foremost of the Throng, - In Garments white array’d shall bend the Knee, 255 - And bow before the Throne----Then Charity, - Thou in his heav’nly Crown a Place shall bear, - And sparkle in the Front the brightest Jewel there. - - - _FINIS._ - -*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A POEM ON THE EARTHQUAKE AT -LISBON *** - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will -be renamed. - -Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright -law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, -so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the -United States without permission and without paying copyright -royalties.

We do not solicit donations in locations -where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND -DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular -state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate - -While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we -have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition -against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who -approach us with offers to donate. - -International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make -any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from -outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. - -Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation -methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other -ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To -donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate - -Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works - -Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project -Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be -freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and -distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of -volunteer support. - -Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed -editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in -the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not -necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper -edition. - -Most people start at our website which has the main PG search -facility: www.gutenberg.org - -This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, -including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary -Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to -subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/old/67011-0.zip b/old/67011-0.zip Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index b5570d5..0000000 --- a/old/67011-0.zip +++ /dev/null diff --git a/old/67011-h.zip b/old/67011-h.zip Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index d3ce3c5..0000000 --- a/old/67011-h.zip +++ /dev/null diff --git a/old/67011-h/67011-h.htm b/old/67011-h/67011-h.htm deleted file mode 100644 index 8eb8a54..0000000 --- a/old/67011-h/67011-h.htm +++ /dev/null @@ -1,862 +0,0 @@ -<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" -"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> - -<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> - <head> <link rel="icon" href="images/cover.jpg" type="image/x-cover" /> -<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" /> -<title> - The Project Gutenberg eBook of A poem on the earthquake at Lisbon. -</title> -<style type="text/css"> - -a:link {background-color:#ffffff;color:blue;text-decoration:none;} - - link {background-color:#ffffff;color:blue;text-decoration:none;} - -a:visited {background-color:#ffffff;color:purple;text-decoration:none;} - -a:hover {background-color:#ffffff;color:#FF0000;text-decoration:underline;} - -body{margin-left:4%;margin-right:6%;background:#ffffff;color:black;font-family:"Times New Roman", serif;font-size:medium;} - -.c {text-align:center;text-indent:0%;} - -.cb {text-align:center;text-indent:0%;font-weight:bold;} - -.fint {text-align:center;text-indent:0%; -margin-top:2em;} - - h1 {margin-top:5%;text-align:center;clear:both; -font-weight:bold;letter-spacing:1em; -line-height:3em;} - - hr.full {width: 60%;margin:2% auto 2% auto;border-top:1px solid black; -padding:.1em;border-bottom:1px solid black;border-left:none;border-right:none;} - - img {border:none;} - -.letra {font-size:250%;float:left;margin-top:-1%;} - - p {margin-top:.2em;text-align:justify;margin-bottom:.2em;text-indent:4%;} - -.pagenum {font-style:normal;position:absolute; -left:95%;font-size:55%;text-align:right;color:gray; -background-color:#ffffff;font-variant:normal;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:none;text-indent:0em;} -.x-bookmaker .pagenum {display: none;} - -small {font-size: 70%;} - -.smcap {font-variant:small-caps;font-size:100%;} - -table {margin-top:2%;margin-bottom:2%;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;border:none;} - -div.poetry {text-align:center;} -div.poem {font-size:100%;margin:auto auto;text-indent:0%; -display: inline-block; text-align: left;} -.poem .stanza {margin-top: 1em;margin-bottom:1em;} -.poem span.i0 {display: block; margin-left: 0em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i1 {display: block; margin-left: .45em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i2 {display: block; margin-left: 1em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} - - -/* -.poem span.i3 {display: block; margin-left: 2em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i4 {display: block; margin-left: 3em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i5 {display: block; margin-left: 3.5em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i6 {display: block; margin-left: 4em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i8 {display: block; margin-left: 7em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i10 {display: block; margin-left: 8em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.i15 {display: block; margin-left: 10em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -.poem span.iq {display: block; margin-left: -.45em; padding-left: 3em; text-indent: -3em;} -*/ - -.poem span.ig { -margin:auto auto;} - -.linenum {position:absolute;top:auto;right:4%;} -</style> - </head> -<body> - -<div style='text-align:center; font-size:1.2em; font-weight:bold'>The Project Gutenberg eBook of A poem on the earthquake at Lisbon, by Anonymous</div> - -<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'> -This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and -most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no restrictions -whatsoever.
