Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leisure Hours: A Collection of Poems The illustrious Coleridge has somewhere said, while remarking on the pleasure derived from his pen, that "independently of profit or fame, Poetry had been to him its own exceeding great reward." And the late Hugh Miller has expressed himself in a somewhat similar manner. May I then, having experienced something of this feeling, he allowed humbly to follow in the distance and say, that the writing of verses has been to me a peculiar source of gratification during my hours of leisure, and having written a number of pieces on various subjects, I was induced to send many of them for insertion in the i Newspapers of the Neighbourhood; and it is now by the solicitations of some friends who, wishing to preserve them, requested me to collect these lowly efforts of a self-taught muse, consequently I must beg other readers not severely to criticise these, the pleasurable productions of my "Leisure Hours."
