Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Verses Old and New
In offering this collection of simple verses to the public, I am perfectly conscious that they possess little or no claim io literary merit. But, remembering the kind consideration with which a previous little volume Gathered Lea?ets was received, I am encouraged to collect the verses I have written since then together with a few cullings from Gathered Lea?ets by special request. This explains the title, Verses Old and New. I am also encouraged by the kindness Of many friends who have promised, both personally and through their acquaintances, to help in the sale of my little book.
