Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sabbath and Other Poems
He makes no pretensions to high poetic talents; but believes, nevertheless, that some of these poems will afi'ord entertainment to families. As an apology for his imperfections, it may be added, that the flower of his life, was devoted to unremitting labors in the Christian pulpit, which gave him little or no time to cultivate the art of poetry.
