Long ungrown <br> The ivory was which, chiselled, robbed of ease <br> Pygmalion, sculptor-lover. Now are these, <br>The stone and ivory, immortal made. <br> The golden apples of Hesperides <br>Shall never, scattered, in blown dust be laid, <br> Till Time, the dragon-guard, has lived his last decade. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">The Cnidian Venus, Galatea's shape, <br> A wondering world beheld, as we behold, -- <br>Here, in blest isles beyond the stormy Cape, <br> Where man the new land dowers with the old, <br> Are neither marble shapes nor fruits of gold, <br>Nor white-limbed maidens, queened enchantress-wise; <br> Here, Nature's beauties no vast ruins enfold, <br>No glamour fills her such as 'wildering lies <br>Where Mediterranean waters laugh to Grecian skies. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Acropolis with figure group and frieze, <br> Parthenon, Temple, concepts born divine, <br>Where in these Isles are wonders great as these? <br> Unquarried lies the stone in teeming mine, <br> Bare is the land of sanctuary and shrine; <br>But though frail hands no god-like record set <br> Great Nature's powers are lavish, and combine <br>In mountain dome, ice-glancing minaret, <br>Deep fiord, fiery fountain and lake with tree-wove carcanet. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">And though the dusky race that to and fro, <br> Like their own shades, pass by and leave no trace, <br>No age-contemning works from quick brain throw, <br> They still have left what Time shall not efface, -- <br> The legends of an isolated race. <br>Not vainly Maui strove; no, not in vain <br> He dared the old Mother of Death and her embrace: <br>That mankind might go free, he suffered pain -- <br>And death he boldly dared, eternal life to gain. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Not death but dormancy the old womb has known, <br> New love shall quicken it, new life attain: <br>These legends old in ivory and stone <br> Shall live their recreated life again, -- <br> Shall wake, like Galatea, to joy and pain. <br>Legends and myths and wonders; what are these <br> But glittering mines that long unworked have lain? <br>A Homer shall unlock with magic keys <br>Treasure for some antipodean Praxiteles!</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Johannes+Carl+Andersen">Johannes Carl Andersen</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=418887" data-title="Maui Victor de Johannes Carl Andersen" data-description="Unhewn in quarry lay the Parian stone, Ere hands, god-guided, of Praxiteles Might shape the Cnidian Venus.
