Publisher's Synopsis
1886. Collection of verse by Browning whose selection was to supply an introduction to the study of the poet for the benefit of the readers of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle; but it is also hoped that others who need assistance in the study of a difficult author may find help in this little book. The selection has been arranged on the principle of beginning with that which is simple, and proceeding gradually to the more complex, with some regard also to variety and progress in subject, and at the same time to appropriateness for the use of those younger readers for whom this selection mainly is intended. Partial Contents: Home Thoughts, From Abroad; Echetlos; Shop; Love Among the Ruins; Evelyn Hope; Good, to Forgive; Popularity; The Guardian Angel; Deaf and Dumb; Saul; and Easter-Day.
