Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds of Passage; Flower-De-Luce; A Book of Sonnets; The Masque of Pandora and Other Poems; Kéramos; Ultima Thule and in the Harbor The Courtship of Mles Standish gave title to a volume, published in 1858, Which contained in addition a number of separate poems grouped under the heading, Birds of Passage. It was in troduced by the poem Prometheus and closed by Epimetheus. The title, Which had been used be fore for a single poem, was conveniently compre hensive and appropriate, and when making the first collective edition of his works after this, Mr. Longfellow employed it to stand above his various shorter pieces after this date, arranging them ac cording to their successive issues in book form, as Flight the First, which included the poems pub lished in The Courtship Olfiles Standish vol ume, and thus through Flight the Fifth. This arrangement is here followed with a slight change. The poem Birds of Passage, originally published in The Seaside and The Fireside, is made to lead the first Flight. Prometheus and Epimetheus, instead of heading and closing one section, are placed together, Since in their original composition and in the author's intention they were comple mentary poems.
