Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sierra Madre, and Other Poems As there can be no possible excuse for an author to publish his productions and force them upon an indulgent and inoffensive public, I shall attempt no justification whatever; a natural inclination has induced me to write, and after writing, the same has aroused a desire to place my writings before the public, to whose candor and justice I am willing to submit, as it rarely misjudges and even more rarely underrates. To the critical I shall quote an extract from the preface of Shelley´s immortal "Prometheus Unbound:" * * * "Let the uncandid consider that they injure me less than their own hearts and minds by misrepresentation. Whatever talents a person may possess to amuse or instruct others, be they ever so inconsiderable, he is yet bound to exert them. If his attempts be ineffectual, let the punishment of an unaccomplished purpose have been sufficient. Let none trouble themselves to heap the dust of oblivion upon his efforts - the pile they raise will betray his grave, which might otherwise have been unknown."
