Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Book of Song
On to a more worthy prey. But since I have been drawn into these brief confessions, this little show of egoism, I should like to say, too, that no song in this little book was made for music, an art which I love, like a savage or a babe, with a con summate ignorance; yet there are many which I have sung to myself in strict solitude, all on one note. I must have known, I think, some of the joy of the real singer who can both ease his heart and keep the tune. And this may be said, too.
