Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fragrant Flowers, and Other Poems The author of the following unpretending volume has a more than usual claim upon the public, which extends to its sympathy as well as to its taste. The poems composing the book have been produced from the depths of physical suffering, as deep as ever man has known. While shut from the light of day by worse than blindness, the muse has come to him in his darkness, and borne him out among the green and fair things of earth; and through the transmuting power of his poetic fancy, the beautiful has become installed where to one less gifted all would have been barren despair. At the moment when the world was brightest to him, and hope most buoyant, in anticipation of usefulness for which his education had fitted him, a painful disease of his optic nerves seized him, and blotted out his hopes forever.
