Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Wooing of Quimby's Daughters, and Other Poems: A Poetic Nosegay of Lyrics, Ballads, Odes, and Tales
What an ideal of modern poetry, therefore, looms here in the transcription of the spirit of the elusive art of music into the poetic form of a symphony of words, and holding it there in solution! It is not a perfect Work, to be sure, but it may be a fair beginning. It serves as an effort to give expression to those words and images we must supply for our selves when we hear only the music.
