Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Zeila, the Fair Maid of Cabul: A Tale of the Affghan Insurrection and the Massacre of the British Troops in the Khoord-Cabul Passes These considerations necessitated the enlargement of the Poem from five to six cantos, and other additions to the text, extending to upwards of two thousand lines, with their equivalent accessory amount of notes. Hence the minor poems, which were to have originally concluded the volume, have been from necessity excluded, and will form a portion of a forthcoming work, which it is the present intention of the Author to publish, should sufficient inducement be held out to him by the success of his first effort. Whether the Author was justified in this exclusion, or otherwise, he must leave to the kind estimate of the Subscribers, on the following cogent grounds. Firstly: the large additions, to the extent already stated (an extra canto and many hundreds of subsidiary lines), and the more copious form of the notes, irrespective of its more general completeness, and the increase of interest given to the Poem, in the development and amount of incident, may be, it is suggested with all deference, considered a reasonable and adequate equivalent for the suppression of the minor poems.
