Excerpt from Poetry and SongWith the exception of the last poem in the book, which is my latest production, and in which I attempt to give voice to the universal and Divine Energy that acts in unison with the Supreme Mind, - they are, as a rule, arranged without regard to the order in which they were first written.A number of them are already familiar to the public through repeated appearance in the newspapers, and, with others less familiar, are now for the first time organized into a separate literary colony at the earnest request, not only of old and valued friends, but of stran gers in all parts of the land.No less than forty of the lyrics have been wedded to the author's own music, and to the music of other composers, and issued in sheet form, and a few of these written long ago - treat of themes that, perhaps, would not have been chosen later on in life, while others are by no means up to the author's present standard of ex pression. But even these have friends who have sung, or heard them sung, in times past, and who would miss them, and be dissatisfied, were their favorites to be excluded from the collection.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
