Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pilgrim of Beauty; The Cottager´s Sabbath: And Other Poems, Now First Collected "The Cottager´s Sabbath" has been once printed; and, some few necessary corrections excepted, re-appears in its original form. Among the minor poems, some of the Songs have been set to music by my valued friend, John Thirlwall. The other pieces have not till now appeared in print: some of these are the productions of mere boyhood: others have arisen from casual moods, and, thrown off with little labour, are left unpolished as they came; and the rest have resulted from occurrences in a life neither inactive nor unchequered. Such as they are, they now appear before the bar of the Public, whose fiat I shall abide without vanity and without impatience. If the ability exists to make them better, the time is wanting; and while disposed to be grateful for honest censure, I am far too proud to solicit praise. My hopes are not sanguine; and, under any circumstances, the negative comfort of the old proverb will remain to me: -"Blessed is he that expecteth nothing, for then he shall not be disappointed."
