Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The House of Brocklesby, and Other Poems: Dedicated to the Earl of Yarborough Mr Lord, The dedication of Poems to a Nobleman, (from an humble individual like myself, without his permission or knowledge) will, I am afraid, at first sight, appear a stretch of boldness and freedom on my part that may require explanation. Disclaiming the hypocrite, and actuated by the purest motives, I trust the following remarks will, in a great measure, vindicate my conduct, if not be found a sufficient apology. Had I not heard and known something of your lordship´s liberality and kindness in patronising those in humble life, as well as those of more exalted station, several of the following ideas had never been brought into existence, through the fear that they might either have been treated with contempt, or considered little better than impertinence.
