Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lord Stirling´s Stand, and Other Poems This volume contains all the poems, which I think worthy of preservation, that I have ever written. Most of them now see the light for the first time, but some have appeared in different periodicals and newspapers. A few of these latter will doubtless be recognized by personal friends; but with such exceptions the entire collection will be new to them as well as to the rest of the public. I have attached to each poem the date when it was written, so that all who may take any interest either in my writings or myself can readily compare the productions of different periods. To complete the record, I may add that my very first verses were written in the autumn of 1861, at the end of a copy of Drake´s poem on The American Flag. There were just twelve lines in all, of which I give the final four: May no rebellion prosper, And may no secession stand Before our country´s power And God´s own avenging hand. The others were unmitigated doggerel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
