About This Book

O poema celebra a descoberta e a beleza da ilha, descrevendo a chegada dos navegadores fatigados por tempestades que encontram na névoa uma terra fecunda e encantadora; a narrativa mistura imagens bíblicas e clássicas, evoca a fé, as caravellas e o impulso das navegações portuguesas como missão divina, e apresenta a ilha como sinal de esperança e ponto de partida para explorações. Ao mesmo tempo, o eu-lírico manifesta saudade e gratidão pessoal, lembrando juventude e consolo que a paisagem insular lhe ofereceu.
