Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Early and Late Poems
AT eighty years of age, an old man, who has written a good deal of verse in his time, may be excused for thinking that some of it may be worth preserving. Many of the poems in this collection were scattered in various directions, or buried beneath a mass of miscellaneous literature. Their appearance in this volume, if it do nothing more, will at least give pleasure to the few old. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
