Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Liberty´s Ordeal I have written this poem because of my belief that, in time like these, an American citizen should bring all his faculties to the support of his Government. The rule that, as Poetry is a Fine Art, a poem must be an end unto itself, and be distinguished from an oration in having no outward end, I have ventured to disregard. My aim has been precisely the same that I should have maintained had I been composing an oration. Indeed, each of the two parts was written with a view to its public recitation. This, together with the fact that Part I. was completed before the occurrence of the events related in Part IL, must account for the unsymmetrical arrangement of topics. The poem, as a mere work of Art - as an end instead of a means - could be greatly improved in point of symmetry, with little labor. But I have thought it best, upon the whole, to let it stand in its original form. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
