Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stanzas and Sketches In publishing his first thin volume of juvenalia, it is customary for the young author to make this the vehicle for excuses, as though he had been guilty of some crime. In my case, I have no excuse to offer. This volume contains a selection of my contributions to the amateur press during the past two years, and comprises all I desire to preserve. In one respect, I am sure, this little book will be more fortunate than many others of greater pretensions; for, as it will circulate only among my personal friends and fellow-workers in the cause of amateur journalism, I can reasonably expect to carry my readers beyond the preface. We are told that one can make himself understood much easier, and with fewer words, in conversation than in writing. I have often thought that the reader, however appreciative, can never understand a sentiment so fully as the writer. We have all heard of how the poet, while under the influence of the divine afflatus, has torn his hair and foamed at the mouth on being delivered of a happy thought.
