Excerpt from Modern Pedagogy: A Poem What aspects modern teaching shows, What fruit from mental culture grows, The Teacher's good and noble deeds, Who youthful mind to wisdom leads, No themes more worthy of the Muse Than these, can humble author choose. His good designs - his errors too, In light of candor brought to view, - What aids his work, or it defeats, How sometimes filled with vain conceits, Some persons are from book-taught lore, And high in fame expect to soar, - All these set forth in open style, (To which if you give heed awhile, ) Will give a chance for you to see A moral, good for you or me. The diff'rent traits of youthful mind, Which teachers will be sure to find, - What anxious care is often spent, With boys on furtive mischief bent, - With what renown their task is crowned, When vice to check, the means are found, - Or how a wayward youth to make, The haunts of revelry forsake , - If I could picture these in rhyme, Though not in style that's called sublime, - About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
