Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Maid of Skiddaw, Songs of Palestine, Vol. 6: And Other Poems When, or under what circumstances, the following trifles were written, the public, busied with its own concerns, will of course care very little to be informed: but to the author's personal friends, and more immediate connections, a few remarks may not be thought wholly out of place. They are, then, the production of earlier and less anxious years; the greater part having been written ere the fancy had learned to submit to the sober verdict of the judgment, still less to the unsparing ordeal of public and impartial criticism. Trifles, the writer himself has denominated them, and such, without any affectation of diffidence he really considers them. In fact his chief motive for submitting them to public notice, is if possible to bespeak some degree of favourable attention for a work, of much greater magnitude and more general interest, which has for some time past occupied his intervals of leisure, and which, in a few months, he hopes to have ready for publication.
