Belshazzar: A Dramatic Poem is a play written by Henry Hart Milman and published in 1822. The play is based on the biblical story of Belshazzar, the last king of Babylon, who held a great feast and saw a mysterious hand writing on the wall. Milman's version of the story incorporates elements of tragedy and romance, as well as political intrigue and religious themes. The play features a cast of characters including Belshazzar, his queen Nitocris, the prophet Daniel, and various courtiers and advisors. Milman's poetic language and vivid imagery bring the story to life, making it a compelling and thought-provoking work of literature. Overall, Belshazzar: A Dramatic Poem is a powerful exploration of power, pride, and the consequences of ignoring divine warnings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
