Excerpt from The Hollanders in Nova Zembla, 1596-1597: An Arctic Poem So struck was I, indeed, with this poem of Hendrik Tollens, that at the time of my writing (1876) I even sought a translation of it from a gifted hand in London. In this endeavor, however, though encouraged at first I was disappointed finally, and was obliged to content my self with the wish, expressed in the preface of my book, that some poet, with the daring requisite to attempt the translation of this c/zef-a war/re of Dutch poesy, and pos sessing something of my own enthusiasm for Holland, would yet place at my disposal an English version of it in order that it might find a place in our language as a further contribution to this subject.
