Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Peculiar Poems I have no excuse to offer in sending this volume of poems out to the ocean of public opinion. They have been written for newspapers, magazines and persons at various times during the past twenty-five years. Many of them have gone the rounds of the press as "anonymous" waifs, and many of my rhythmic children are still travelling incog. If the world takes half the pleasure in reading the poems that I felt in writing them, I shall be richly paid for their composition. Truth and beauty are the bed-rock principles of poetry, and unless these two great elements conjoin in verse, there can be no poetry. I do not claim for my lines the imperial flights of Homer, Shakspeare, or Edgar Allan Poe, but I do claim some of the simplicity, heart, and love found in Tasso, Goldsmith, Longfellow, and the Cary sisters.
