Excerpt from PoemsRiences of the womanly heart. By a word or epithet she some times unlocks a new avenue of thought. Her pure spiritual genius and native beauties of fancy and imagination, will not escape the reader. We seem to see a life of struggle and self education, of earnest aspiration and deep Christian trust suf fusing the page. So poetry rises to prophecy, and the singer of the fair and beautiful, becomes the teacher of everlasting truth. We commend these modest pages to the lovers of the gentle Art, assured that they will be touched anew with a sense of the loveliness of nature, and the grandeur of life, as they follow the clue of a thoughtful, humble worshipper of God. While, then, the great organs thunder forth in Dantean or Miltonic strains the sublime ecstacies that shake the soul, we will not disdain to listen to the gentle lute, which with heavenly melody, changes the common air to music, and tells us of that love of God which is in all things, least and greatest. The voice of the Sisterhood as well as that of the Brotherhood, is needed to complete the gammet. This, too, is of God, and happy is it in our free day that nothing less than Humanity in its wide sweep of experience, capacity and aspiration is to be the prophet.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
