Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Collection of Miscellaneous Poems, and a College Oration This is not a publication. Only a few copies of this collection have been printed, exclusively for distribution among the friends of the author. It would be manifest injustice to regard these poems critically, as the finished productions of a matured intellect, claiming the notice of the public. They were the mere playful off-flowerings - the divertive exercises of an untrained fancy, affording, only by snatches, the evidences of its native power. Not so much allowance should be claimed for the circumstance of his youth, as for the absence of the inspiring excitement of literary ambition and responsibility, which, though it tames feeble minds, is always necessary to rouse the energies of the powerful. As this is not intended for the public, no apology can be needed for the many careless passages it contains; and no comment is necessary to satisfy the candid judge that its amiable author possessed, naturally, a rich fancy, and true poetic feeling.
