Excerpt from Letters From the Woods: Editorial Correspondence, Random Rhymes, From 20 to 70, Annual AddressesOf the early efforts at random rhyme perhaps the less said the better. They mark in memory a somewhat extended residence in a historical city of New England which of old was a reputed locality of witches and their alleged craft. But all the witches we encountered were attractive creations of ¿esh and blood, abundantly equipped to foster poetic inspira tion in the brain of youthful romance. To become a subject of their witchery, had there been no more convenient oppor tunity of companionship, one would have been content to have accompanied them on a moonlight broom-stick excursion over the city, and have shared with them a chance of mercy at the hands of puritanical over-righteousness, as the penalty of such an aerial feat.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
