Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
The present Volume contains Poems new and old. The former editions of my little books being out of print, and having a small accumulation of unpublished pieces, - the fruits of poetic hours, - I have ventured to publish the whole as one Volume. With the exception of the first Poems, they are printed in the order in which they appeared. Many of them being my first attempts at verse, it is with considerable diffidence that I launch my bark on the sea of public Opinion.
At the same time, let me gratefully acknowledge, that the generous welcome which my Friends and the Public have given to me heretofore, is enough both to encourage me, and to inspire me with hope that, in appearing before them with some new contents, and in a new dress, I shall not forfeit my welcome.
