Excerpt from The Heir of the World, and Lesser Poems
Tun subject of the Poem is the command of God to Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac on Mount Moriah. The first XVII stanzas, descriptive of native scenery and individual feelings, are intended as an introduction to that sublimest of all acts of devotion - sublimest, because least influenced by any expectation of fame or hope of reward on earth. To a description of the scene of Abraham's dwelling-place succeeds his vision of future days, - and the author has attempted to epitomize the history of the Jews.
