Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Human Life: Or, the Course of Time; As Seen in the Open Light
The author puts this work before the world because he believes that a great poem, of a former generation, calls for a truer presentation of its subject, and that the rhythmical style of that poem is most appropriate for this purpose.
Conscious that the good fortune of gaining a more favorable standpoint, in the clearer light of our day, has revealed to himself the truth in fuller measure and freer from distortions, he has attempted the task. His chief purpose is to present the order of human history - to show the formative laws in their relation to our race, and how they unfold humanity into true life and happiness.
