Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Atalanta in Calydon: A Tragedy
I now dedicate, with equal affection, reverence, and regret, a poem inscribed to him while yet alive in words which are now retained because they were laid before him; and to which, rather than cancel them, I have added such others as were evoked by the news of his death: that though losing the pleasure I may not lose the honour of inscribing in front of my work the highest of contemporary names.
