Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Retrospect: A Poem; In Four Cantos
'twas eve - the sun had grandly rolled, Through crimson clouds all fringed with Injriumph down the west But left behind, as king of day, His twilight's soft enchanting rav TO meditations blest. A thousand plants, of Summer's bloom, Were blending in one sweet perfume Their breath upon the air; Where all, in bliss, appeared to fill Life's transient cup Without an ill, As once did Eden fair. A stately mansion near as stood.
