Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Specimens of the British Poets: With Biographical and Critical Notices and an Essay on English Poetry With this, the Second Edition of these Specimens, their original Editor has had nothing to do, being prevented by 'other engagements from resuming the task of revising them. Various inaccuracies of the former edition have been removed in this, - some silently, for it had been burdening the book with use less matter to have retained them in the text, and pointed them out in a note, -while others, that entangled a thought or gave weight to it, have been al lowed to stand, but not without notes to stop the perpetuity of the error. With many of the now-discovered inaccuracies of the work in dates and mere minutiae, Mr. Campbell is not properly chargeable: some may be laid to the excursive nature of his task; others to the imperfect information of those days compared with ours, for we cannot have lived two-and-twenty years without important additions to our literary facts. Mr. Campbell's excellent taste in the selection of these Specimens has never been disputed; and of his Critical Disquisitions the best eulogy is in the fact that no work of any importance on our literary history has been written since they were published, without commendatory references to them; in particular, that they have been corrected and appealed to by Lord Byron, applaudingly quoted by Sir Walter Scott, and frequently cited and referred to by Mr. Hallam.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from David Gray, and Other Essays, Chiefly on Poetry The biography of David Gray is another matter. A large portion Of it appeared some years ago in the Cornhill Magazine, but the additions, now first published, are very important. It is a story known and told as only one could know and tell it; and will, I trust, send still more readers to Gray's wonderful poems. The little green-bound duodecimo, The Luggie and other Poems, by the late David Gray, was wafted out unto the great world, heralded by a kindly preface and a brief memoir. It excited little or no comment. The exquisite music was too low and tender to attract crowds, or to entice coteries delighted with the scream of the whipper snapper. Nevertheless, a few rare spirits heard and welcomed the truest, purest, tenderest. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on the Poets: And Other English Writers Of books, resting only on grounds which, in sincerity, you believe to be true, and speaking without anger or scorn, you can hardly say the thing which ought to be taken amiss. But of men and women you dare not, and must not, tell all that chance may have revealed to you. Sometimes you are summoned to silence by pity for that general human infirmity, which you also, the writer, share. Sometimes you are checked by the consideration, that perhaps your knowledge of the case was originally gained under opportunities allowed by confidence or by unsuspecting carelessness. Sometimes the disclosure would cause quarrels between parties now at peace. Sometimes it would carry pain, such as you could not feel justified in carrying, into the mind of him who was its object. Sometimes, again, if right to be told, it might be difficult to prove. Thus, for one cause or another, some things are sacred, and some things are perilous, amongst any personal revelations that else you might have it in your power to make. And seldom, indeed, is your own silent retrospect of such connections altogether happy. 'Put not your trust in princes, nor in the sons of princes, ' - this has been the warning, - this has been the farewell moral, winding up and pointing the experience of dying statesmen. Not less truly it might be said - 'Put not your trust in the intellectual princes of your age: ' form no connections too close with any who live only in the atmosphere of admiration and praise. The love or the friendship of such people rarely contracts itself into the narrow circle of individuals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems and Essays, Vol. 1 of 2 I DO not think that any reader of the poems and essays which these volumes contain can fail to wish for some further insight into the character of their author. I am aware, indeed, that Mr. Roscoe's career was not in any way one to justify a formal biography, or even an extended memoir. For though his intrinsic claims to some permanent, if modest, place in English lite rature may probably be conceded by most competent judges of his literary remains, there was certainly no thing in his external life to render Mr. Carlyle's most pathetic question in any way inapplicable to his case.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays Historical and Biographical No sooner had the news of my brother's death spread last November than several requests were made that a selection of his sermons should be published. One friend, however, suggested that, as he had in a pre eminent degree the gift of sketching character and setting it forth with its surroundings, a volume of sketches should be issued first. The following have been selected from among many more. From the time when he studied in Berlin under Neander till his latest days he cultivated this gift. He lived among the heroes of the past, and yet no man ever took a deeper interest in the men around him. Goethe said of Shakespeare's characters that they are like watches with transparent faces. You not only see the hands pointing to the dial, but you see the working of the machinery inside. Much of the same nature are the sketches in this volume. We have included sketches of reformers, of missionaries, of poets, and of cotemporaries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Specimens of the British Poets, Vol. 5 of 7: With Biographical and Critical Notices, and an Essay on English Poetry Dr. George Sewell, author of Sir Walter Raleigh, a tragedy; several papers in the fifth volume of the Tatler, and ninth of the Spectator; a Life of John Philips; and some other things. There is something melancholy in this poor man's history. He was a physician at Hampstead, with very little practice, and chiefly subsisted on the invitations of the neighbouring gentlemen, to whom his amiable character made him acceptable; but at his death not a friend or relative came to commit his remains to the dust! He was buried in the meanest manner, under a hollow tree, that was once part of the boundary of the church-yard of Hampstead. No memorial was placed over his remains. Verses, Said to be written by the author on himself when he was in a consumption. Why, Damon, with the forward day, Dost thou thy little spot survey, From tree to tree, with doubtful cheer, Pursue the progress of the year, What winds arise, what rains descend, When thou before that year shalt end?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Poetry and Poets These Essays, with all their faults, were carefully composed, but, since a few of them were written some time ago, all have been scrupulously revised, the information involved, moreover, being brought, as far as possible, up to date: those that are republished have also been occasionally altered, in accordance with modified conviction on the part of the writer; others are recent, and published now for the first time. All deal with modern, romantic poetry. The keynote of more than one of them is to be found in my opening essay on the "Poetic Interpretation of Nature," for a very marked characteristic of the best poetry of our century is the worship, and faithful, though idealized, delineation of external nature. In the last paper I print an experience of English travel, because, though hardly indeed covered by the book's designation, it forms a kind of return to this "dominant theme," being an attempt of my own at some measure of that descriptive interpretation, the general principles of which I have discussed in my first paper; this is a record of the experience on which was partly founded my poem "Thalatta," in "Songs of the Heights and Deeps."

The only articles included here which have previously appeared in book-form are the essays on The Poetry of William Blake and on Shelley. I have included these, not only because I think they show Thomson at his best as a critic, but also because I was anxious to bracket them and the article on Garth Wilkinson A Strange Book together. The three essays, though written at wide intervals of time, will be found to be linked together, not only because they deal with the fundamental questions of poetical criticism, but because they unfold with a fair degree of complete ness the views of a true poet upon the methods and.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems and Essays: With a Biographical Sketch by James Freeman Clarke and a Preface by C. A. Bartol An Introduction to this little volume, of great chants of the spirit, must seem like an introductory prayer to a religious service. It rather resembles the often needless speech of a presiding officer, on the platform, for some fine orator to follow. We are glad when the prelude is done. It resembles a formal grace to a delightful feast, when none complain of the fewness of the words. I shall try not to abuse the privilege of my invitation to write the preface to these poems, in which beauty and originality blend, and lofty truth is put forth in perfect rhythm. The book is a monogram - none like it, or equal to it in its own style, has seen the light in our land. It is its author's life-long piety set to music. It is his soul's experience of God. It is that sort of testimony, which surpasses logical deeds, to the reality of heavenly things. May it prolong in the world the devout imaginative feeling of whose strain it was born.
