Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems of the Heart For a volume of verse, void of speculative philosophy, and almost lacking in Colonial character, the prospect of favour with a Colonial Public must, I fear, be but moderate. Yet, withal, I am emboldened to hope that this carefully selected edition of my poems - designed in their various divisions to instruct, to amuse, and to elevate - will be found to have somewhat attained to these aims. To the possible objection to my Scottish Musings, I reply that these are Poems of the Heart, which, as I felt, I writ. A stranger, speaking to me about my autobiographical novel - "Bush Life," - which he had just finished reading, summed up his opinion of its merits with the emphatic remark, "I call it a manly story." Should it be my good fortune, then, to impress intelligent readers with the opinion that the contents of this volume are manly poems, I will bear contentedly with what merely artistic merits the severely critical may disallow for them.
