Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Chaunt of Life, and Other Poems, Vol. 1 of 6: With Sketches and Essays
These compositions appear in compliance with the Wishes of many of the writer's friends, and if in any degree they shall contribute to instruction or entertainment, the end of their mission Will be fulfilled. They are but the overflowings of emotions Which yearn for sympathy, though too unambitious to con tend for fame. The author therefore rejoices for those Who run faster or more profitably in the field of literary competition, content if be but effect a lodgement in the affect-ions even of the lowliest mind.
