Divertissement : Oh ! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth

http://www.philipcracknell.blogspot.com/2014/08/oh-i-have-slipped-surly-bonds-of-earth.html

Sunday, 24 August 2014. I have slipped the surly bonds of earth. I am minded of the flight of Icarus when reading that amazingly inspirational poem "High Flight" by John Gillespie Magee, which so well describes the exhilaration and the wonder of high flying. I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth. And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds,. 8211; and done a hundred things. You have not dreamed of wheeled and soared and swung.

Friday, 29 August 2014. The Duchess of Richmond's Ball on the Eve of Waterloo. There was a sound of revelry by night,. And Belgium's capital had gathered then. Her beauty and her chivalry, and bright. The lamps shone o'er fair women and brave men. A thousand hearts beat happily; and when. Music arose with its voluptuous swell,. Soft eyes looked love to eyes which spake again,. And all went merry as a marriage bell;. A deep sound strikes like a rising knell! Did ye not hear it? On with the dance! The Duch...
