Excerpt from PoemsNot, then, as the productions of a boiler-maker who wrote verses, but as the work of a Poet is this volume offered to the world. Mr. Peacock's was a strictly poetical temperament. His friends can testify that what he wrote was not the outcome of a mere talent for rhyming, but a true expression of the man himself. His poems are his biography. Therefore, they appeal with power to the Souls of others, and the more they are studied the worthier do they appear. Mr. Pea cock spoke from the heart rather than from the intel lect, and a heart like his, with its kinship to Nature, to Beauty, and to Spiritual Reality, could' not but create poetry. Had he written no other lines than those on ¿owers, He Patriot's Dirge, Lone, Musings near 0 Tomb, or le Broken Lyre, his title to rank as a Poet would have been complete.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
