Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Humorous Poems Some time in the year 1825 there was published in London a thin duodecimo volume having for title Odes and Addresses to Great People. It bore no author´s name on the title-page, - only a quotation from the Citizen of the World, "Catching all the oddities, the whimsies, the absurdities and the littlenesses of conscious greatness by the way." The little book proved, on examination, to contain some fifteen humorous poems addressed to various public characters of greater or less claim to distinction at that day. There was one to Mr. Graham, the aeronaut; another to M´Adam, the maker of roads; another to Mrs. Fry, the Quaker philanthropist; another to Grimaldi, the clown, and so forth.
