Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Things Worth While: A Volume of Verse Illustrated
There is so much to claim as a birthright, there is so much to leave as an inheritance, and though our accomplishment be ever so small, let us express ourselves in some way to show our appreciation. I should like to think deeper than I can, I should like to write clearer than I do, I should like to be better in everything that I attempt, but I have done my best, I have tried to be understood in these simple verses, which are the cold printed plan of my own feelings and imagination, the best expression I can give to my own thoughts; you are free to have yours regarding them.
