Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lays of Hearth and Home In publishing this little volume, I feel it necessary to claim the kind indulgence of the Reader for these unpretending poems which have so essentially been written for my own home-circle. I am well aware that they can, critically speaking, boast of no poetic merit, and only be of value to those kindred spirits that may have thrilled to the same emotions, and may find in these verses an echo of their own feelings and impressions. If a glance into my little book can brighten an hour of weariness, or soothe a moment of suffering; if but one fainting heart can find in its pages a word of comfort or encouragement, then indeed will my aim be attained, and God´s blessing rest on these simple strains! In the sixth verse of the poem entitled Graziella´s Dying Farewell" (pag. 32)a mistake has occurred in the first four lines which I must beg the Reader to change thus: Thou hast not been all that my heart had deemed thee, Thou hast not loved so faithfully as I; Thou wouldst not then so lightly have esteemed me. And left me thus in lonely grief to die. I have now only to entreat the Readers indulgence for any errors which may have escaped my attention in this little volume which has had the disadvantage of being printed in a foreign language.
