Then in scorn of self laughed, And forswore the Poet's craft, And I turned from Love, the Poet's lord and master, Yea, I turned and ed away, But he followed me all day; When I ed, he always followed me the faster.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poetry and Song With the exception of the last poem in the book, which is my latest production, and in which I attempt to give voice to the universal and Divine Energy that acts in unison with the Supreme Mind, - they are, as a rule, arranged without regard to the order in which they were first written. A number of them are already familiar to the public through repeated appearance in the newspapers; and, with others less familiar, are now for the first time organized into a separate literary colony at the earnest request, not only of old and valued friends, but of stran gers in all parts of the land. No less than forty of the lyrics have been wedded to the author's own music, and to the music of other composers, and issued in sheet form; and a few of these written long ago - treat of themes that, perhaps, would not have been chosen later on in life, while others are by no means up to the author's present standard of ex pression. But even these have friends who have sung, or heard them sung, in times past, and who would miss them, and be dissatisfied, were their favorites to be excluded from the collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs and Miscellaneous Poems Among the diverse interests of this restless money-grubbing world, there is one which should hold a larger place than it does in the affections of the masses, - namely, the honest, unaffected love of home and home pleasures. In these days we are all of us too much disposed to seek enjoyment abroad, and to figure more than is good for us in the eye of the public. The craving for excitement has made us impatient with home, and the fireside and domestic shrines have in large measure lost their attraction. We are no longer satisfied with the novel, with the song or with the play, that used to delight our forefathers; nothing so simple and innocent would now content us. Even our religion has suffered a change. The stern morality and unbending creeds of other days have become pliant and yielding, while compromise and emasculated beliefs have taken their place. The old doctrines familiar to the by-gone pulpit now offend us, though we are not particular if the preacher resorts to irreverence and slang, on the contrary, we rather encourage him in this propensity. With tastes and cravings so destructive to the spiritual life, what wonder that simple joys and quiet domestic pleasures have in the social world lost much of their charm? Yet "the common people," - as the phrase goes, - the men and women who are doing the every-day work of this toiling world, stand more than ever in need of rest and quiet, and the kindly solacement of happy fireside intercourse.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Home Book of Poetry and Song: Comprising Choice Selections From the Poets of All Lands and Ages It is a difficult thing to define poetry; some things are so great, so beautiful, so comprehensive, that they outrun all the limits of possible definition. Our scales are not large enough to weigh the high mountains; our balances are too small for the everlasting hills. Any definition 'of poetry that regarded it as the expression of sentiment only, would be both misleading and incomplete. The greatest and deepest truths of the ages have fallen from the lips of poets, from the days of Job to the poets of these later years. The gravest and the sweetest lessons of life have come to us robed in poetic garments; the gladdest messages of hope, and the saddest requiems of despair, have alike been swept from the poet's harp.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Songs, and Other Small Poems "Barry Cornwall, with the exception of Coleridge, is the most genuine poet of love, who has, for a long period, appeared among us. There is an intense and passionate beauty, a depth of affection, in his little dramatic poems, which appear even in the affectionate triflings of his gentle characters. He illustrates that holiest of human emotions, which, while it will twine itself with the frailest twig, or dally with the most evanescent shadow of creation, wasting its excess of kindliness on all around it, is yet able to 'look on tempests and be never shaken.' Love is gently omnipotent in his poems; accident and death itself are but passing clouds, which scarcely vex and which cannot harm it. The lover seems to breathe out his life in the arms of his mistress, as calmly as the infant sinks into its softest slumber. The fair blossoms of his genius, though light and trembling at the breeze, spring from a wide, and deep, and robust stock, which will sustain far taller branches without being exhausted."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Song of Italy We have but re-echoed the judgment of all competent critics, in saying that Swinburne rightfully ranks with the few great poets of this and Of other ages. His present work is one oi the finest artistic efforts which we have ever chanced to encounter. It has more human interest than his 'atalanta in Calydon, ' while it is couched in the same vigorous and splendid diction and 'is richly dight' with melodious and sweetly magnificent songs. His portraiture is one of the amplest, most thoroughly elaborated, and most gorgeously coloured, in the whole wide range of British poetry - Nsw Yoxx weekly review, December 9th, 1865.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories in Song and Other Poems As to the origin of poetry the angler and the poet agree; and without doubt they have spoken the truth. Poetry is a thing of God, and the poetic genius is a gift; it stirs the best in our hearts, because the best has brought it forth it stimulates to lofty deeds because it springs from lofty conceptions. Poetry better than prose reveals the writer. Imagine if you will the muse stirring the embers of thought and feeling, directing the pen, but conception and expression are ever moulded and colored by the writer's characteristics. In poetry as in painting methods of expression differ widely. Schools of poetry like schools of philosophy have gathered about those whose productions have made them eminent. Pope, Dryden's pupil, had many copyists. The Wordsworth school is still in exist ence, Longfellow's style and method have many imitators, and we might mention many more of whom this is true. Shakespeare and Milton have had their imitators, but perhaps they have hardly been at the head of a school, for the reason that they have stood alone, inimitable, the one in dramatic and the other in epic poetry.
