Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Newton Goodrich Its faults, of course, are all his own, and would, he now thinks, have been fewer had he always listened to the counsel of his friends. His purpose in composing "Pitman´s Brief" was to exhibit strikingly the folly and the danger of indulging in resentment, but since the reader may decide that he has not succeeded (or ´reckon´ that, in any case, the world has abler teachers) and he has no excuse for publishing which might seem better, it would be only weak impertinence in him to deprecate censorious criticism and, so, with ´fear and trembling,´ he submits his page (if haply it should prove of large enough importance) for their consideration who, in so few years, have raised the tone of the Victorian Press to its respected elevation and effect. The morale of the minor compositions and of the ´selections´ from "Married in Black" is, he hopes, all unexceptionable; yet, since their subjects are familiar and, on their manner, merit, or demerit, it might not be, for him, quite wise to comment, even were prefaces, before-words, prologues, leading-of-from-speeches (avant-propos - Vorreden) not unread and voted tedious, he feels that, having said thus much (which seems so little) about his dreamy and romantic volume - c´est tout dit.
