Book excerpt: Excerpt from Posthumous Poems of Percy Bysshe Shelley I'r had been my wish, on presenting the public with the Posthumous Poems of Mr. Shelley, to have ac companied them by a biographical notice: as it ap peared to me, that at this moment a narration of the events of my husband's life would come more grace fully from other hands than mine, I applied to Mr. Leigh hunt. The distinguished friendship that Mr. Shelley felt for him, and the enthusiastic affection with which Mr. Leigh hunt clings to his friend's me mory, seemed to point him out as the person best cal culated for such an undertaking. His absence from this country, which prevented our mutual explanation, has unfortunately rendered my scheme abortive. I do not doubt but that on some other occasion he will pay this tribute to his lost friend, and sincerely regret that the volume which I edit has not been honoured by its insertion.
