Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (Генри Уодсворт Лонгфелло)


King Trisanku


Viswamitra the Magician,
  By his spells and incantations,
Up to Indra's realms elysian
  Raised Trisanku, king of nations. 

Indra and the gods offended
  Hurled him downward, and descending
In the air he hung suspended,
  With these equal powers contending. 

Thus by aspirations lifted,
  By misgivings downward driven,
Human hearts are tossed and drifted
  Midway between earth and heaven.

  1. Bishop Sigurd at Salten-Fiord
  2. To the River Rhone
  3. The Four Princesses at Wilna
  4. Oliver Basselin
  5. God's Acre
