Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fair Play: And Other Poems No one is obliged to be an author. If, however, one conceives that he has written something which he thinks will edify the public, and that they will appreciate what he has so written, and he publishes it, he must abide the judgment they place upon it for having thrust himself upon them. If the judgment be in his favor for any merit displayed in his writings, he will deserve well of them for his effort in enlighten their opinion. On the other hand, if the judgment of the public be againist him for his pretentiousness, then he will profit by their criticism of his demerits and spur him on to greater effort and nobler endeavor in the future. It is with this motive in mind that these effusions are given to the public; not wholly however with the desire to gain for himself public opinion, but because of the wish of some acquaintances who have already read the poems published in the press, and who desire to have them in a more enduring form, that they arc put forth in the present dress upon the public. With this understanding these fledglings, the fruit of his leisure moments, are given as a testimony to his regards for and a wish to see the advancement and betterment of his race.
