Excerpt from Poems and Essays: With a Biographical Sketch by James Freeman Clarke and a Preface by C. A. BartolAN Introduction to this little volume, of great chants of the spirit, must seem like an introductory prayer to a re ligious service. It rather resembles the often needless speech of a presiding officer, on the platform, for some fine orator to follow. We are glad when the prelude is done. It resembles a formal grace to a delightful feas_t, when none complain of the fewness of the words. I shall try not to abuse the privilege of my invitation to write the preface to these poems, in which beauty and originality blend, and lofty truth is put forth in perfect rhythm. The book is a monogram - none like it, or equal to it in its own style, has seen the light in our land. It is its author's life-long piety set to music. It is his soul's experience of God. It is that sort of testimony, which surpasses logical deeds, to the reality of heavenly things. May it prolong in the world the devout imaginative feeling of whose strain it was born.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
