DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Thalaba the Destroyer, Vol. 1 of 2: A Rhythmical Romance IN the continuation of the Arabian Tales, the Domdaniel is mentidned; a Seminary for evil Magicians, under the Roots of the Sea. From this seed the present Romance has grown. Let me not be supposed to prefer the rhythm in which it is written, abstractedly considered, to the regular blank verse; the noblest measure, in my judgment, of which our admirable language is capable. For the following Poem I have preferred it, because it suits the varied subject; it is the Arabesque ornament of an Arabian tale.
