Excerpt from The Two Blind CountriesMazily wandering through a blind land, As a sailor gropes a strange shore, Continually would he stop and stand, His ear to a door.Shadows and droll shapes thronged him about, But he cared no whit for them all, He, all alone in that crazy rout, Heard through the wall.As the sea beats on a fog-bound beach A clamorous whispering broke, And against the shaken door surged the muf¿ed speech Of a world of folk.But and if they called him they were not heard, And he might cry to them in vain, Between them and him not the least small word Could pass again.Only through a crack in the door's blind face He would reach a thieving hand, To draw some clue to his own strange place From the other land.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
