Publisher's Synopsis

Oh, Why Should The Spirit Of Mortal Be Proud? is a thought-provoking book written by William Knox. The book is a collection of poems that explore the human condition and the fleeting nature of life. The title of the book is taken from one of the most famous poems in the collection, which questions why humans should be proud when their lives are so brief and insignificant in the grand scheme of things.The poems in this book cover a wide range of themes, including love, death, nature, and spirituality. They are written in a variety of styles, from sonnets to free verse, and each one is crafted with care and attention to detail. The language is rich and evocative, with vivid imagery and powerful metaphors that bring the poems to life.Throughout the book, Knox grapples with the big questions of life, such as the meaning of existence and the nature of the soul. His poems are deeply philosophical and reflective, inviting readers to ponder their own place in the world and the mysteries that surround us all.Overall, Oh, Why Should The Spirit Of Mortal Be Proud? is a beautiful and thought-provoking collection of poems that will appeal to anyone who loves literature, philosophy, or simply wants to explore the human experience in all its complexity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
