Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Minstrel's Inspiration: And Other Poems I caught a vision, through passing time, From which my spirit life, was fed; That thoughts, in poetry I could rhyme, That became to be, my daily bread. For it was Aristotle, who wisely said, It is not the function of the Poet, To relate what happened, to be led, But what may, is his merit. Then the greatest and wisest thing to me Are not, of this life as it is. But, a knowledge of what might be; Of the passions and sympathies. There is a vision of the spirit that's sublime, That's been called a mystery; Of the harmony of love, that divine, That's a fact, and not a theory. C. F.
