Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Carmina Minima This knot of "unconsidered Trifles" (which certainly Autolycus himself would not care to "snap up") was intended only for private circulation, - as a keepsake and memorial of old and sweet friendships; of cordial acquaintances; and of abounding hospitalities. The old saying however recurred to me; - "There be many that do know the Lord Mayor´s Jester; but whom the Lord Mayor´s Jester doth not know:" and so, I, in my late public capacity of lecturer, may possess numerous unrecognized friends among my audiences, who might desire to retain some small memento of one, who claimed, at all events, the merit of an honest zeal and assiduity in administering to their intellectual demands and recreation: - I therefore determined upon the usual, open form of publication. The compositions themselves are casual thoughts, scattered at long intervals, over more than a half century of varied, busy, and every-day mental employment. They accurately fulfil the present intention of their author concerning them; since, being "Trifles", they betoken his "Respect" in this, their presentation.
