Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
But a great many people, to Whom the author's prose works are well known, have never even heard that he had written poetry. This is due in a measure to the fact that the published book of poems only got into circulation by its first small edition. Its second edition found a silent apotheosis in ?ame at a great fire at the publisher's in London, in which nearly the whole of it perished.
