Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lyrics of the Hudson: Poems It is with a feeling closely akin to pain that one takes up the work of an author very lately gone from among men. It is like entering the room of a friend when the friend has just quitted it forever. There are his books in the same order as when he left them: the waste basket still holds its litter of pamphlets and torn papers; the desk is strewn with letters and manuscripts; the pen yet lies where it fell from the tired fingers of its owner across the half-completed page. So with the book that comes to us soon after the death of its author the book that he had planned and never saw. Perhaps the proof-sheets came to him day after day as he felt life slipping away from him, wondering perchance as his hold on material things relaxed if he should ever see the closing pages. Or possibly the summons came suddenly, and he in obedience to it "At its topmost speed let fall the pen And left the tale half-told."
