Napoleon's Dying Soliloquy

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from Napoleon's Dying Soliloquy: And Other Poems No accurate estimate of the character of Napoleon has been attempted to have been formed in the subsequent Poem. It is the position of the fallen and fettered monarch, like that of Prometheus in the tragedy of Æschylus, that has been embodied with sentiment, by the imagination of the poet. Sublime, although may be the idea of the personification of the son of Iäpetus and Clymene, that Lucifer of Grecian fable, glorying in his mighty deeds, while writhing under the wrath of an avenging Jove, yet not less grand were the representation of Napoleon, (if depicted by abler hands than mine) pourtrayed as prouder than the son of the Titans, disdaining to give vent to his sufferings, whilst he expires an exile, abandoned, the Ariadne of his empires, on a desert isle.
