Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Faith and Fancy My dear friend: With great esteem for your many virtues and accomplishments, I dedicate this book of Faith and Fancy to you, and sincerely regret my inability to make it more worthy of your acceptance. While, however, I am thus proudly eager to let my readers know how I value private worth and public integrity; how in your person I honor purity of feeling, uprightness of character, and steadfast devotion to principle; and admire the variety of talent and intellectual resources which illustrate the unceasing promptings of your heart to generous efforts in behalf of Letters, Science, Humanity, and Justice; - while I thus take advantage of this Publication to boast sincere affection and respect for one so widely useful and so generally beloved, let me, under cover of the indulgence your public services will command, add a very few words touching the volume I offer you. Prefaces, it would seem, are not so much the fashion now as in days gone by, though I am glad to see that some of our best and most powerful writers do not ignore the good old sociable custom. I confess to a feeling of self-respect which would compel me to raise my hat, by way of prefatory courtesy, to the person who, either at his own or my desire, was going to be the confidant of my hopes, woes, experiences, or sensations. Every person who writes poetry, is in such a position of self-exposure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
