Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of the Rev. H. F. Lyte
As is generally the case with those who highly esteem the friendships of life, he felt their loss most acutely. The poem Friends Lost in 18 3 3 expresses his sense of sorrow. But he was constantly forming new attachments, and so all through life his friends were numerous. His pleasant friendliness of nature was such that others were instinctively attracted toward him. We may, however, conclude that his early formed friendships were the sweetest and best. Happy are all who succeed in retaining the friends of their youth. He that hath many friends must show himself friendly.' But though of such a sociable nature, he was most industrious, and never allowed social engagements to interfere with his intellectual pursuits.
