Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
The verses contained in this volume were not written with a view to publication in the form of a book, but having submitted them to a friend, - whose literary attainments are of the highest order, and whose taste and judgment no one could afford to ignore, - I have been led by his encouragement to have them published in this form. Apologizing for their imperfections, I trust that they contain no sentiments that will fail to entertain and to help those who may do me the honor to read them.
