Madonna's Child (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Madonna's Child Nearly a quarter of a century has elapsed since the first publication of Madonna's Child, and almost as long a period since it was allotted its due place in the Second Act of The Human Tragedy. Even then the hope was cherished that a distinct and separate existence might be reserved for it, partly from the pardonable partiality authors not unoften entertain for the first-born of their serious Muse, and in part because, as far as story and purpose are concerned, the little poem is complete in itself, and might conceivably be not unwelcome to some, whom the greater length, the less strictly individual interest, and the wider issues of The Human Tragedy, would be sure to repel.
