Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thousand and One Gems of English Poetry The design of the Editor or Compiler of the following volume was to present one great panoramic view of the masterpieces of English poetry, and that of the publishers to issue it in a form and at a price which would recommend it to the taste of the rich, without placing it beyond the means of the poor. The original intention of the Editor was to commence with Chaucer and end with Wordsworth, Moore, Rogers, Hood, Campbell, and other poets of the last generation, who have recently passed from among us, thus excluding the works of living writers. To this arrangement the publishers made objection, on the ground, very easily defensible, that some of the brightest gems of the "Thousand and One" are the productions of living genius - both in Great Britain and the United States of America. The Editor yielded the point, but was met with the serious difficulty that it was not in all cases possible to include the works of living writers - even if their consent could be obtained; - firstly, because the copyrights were not always their own; - secondly, because their addresses were not obtainable without great trouble and loss of time; - and thirdly, because the modem poets, in England and America, were so numerous, that if specimens of all their poetic jewellery were got together, an undue proportion of the volume would be occupied by writers of the second half of the nineteenth century. Another difficulty which personally was more serious, existed in the dilemma in which the Editor found himself with regard to his own compositions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Thousand and One Gems of English and American Poetry, From Chaucer to Tennyson: Chronologically Arranged It is not claimed for this volume, that it contains all the gems of English and American poetry, for the num ber of specimens has been purposely limited. It may be that some verses are omitted which should have found a place here in preference to those selected. This is a matter of judgment and critical taste, in which the editor may have erred. It is claimed, however, that these selec tions are all gems, the merits of which are universally conceded. They comprise a greater number, and they present the characteristics of a greater number of authors, than in any previous compilation within the same limita tions as to style and price.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selections From Five English Poets: Edited With Introduction and Notes When a poem is read aloud it is easy to realize that poetry is closely related to music. Like music it awakens vague, mysterious feelings which cannot be expressed in ordinary speech and the person who fails to catch the subtle melody of a poem gets but little from it even though he understands perfectly the mean ing of the words. To illustrate this, put into common place prose a passage of beautiful verse, for instance, lines 3 58 - 372 of Tke Ancient Mariner, beginning, Sometimes a-dropping from the sky, - and then compare the prose version with the original. flthe two will be found as unlike as the flower after it has been dissected by the botanist, and the same flower still on the stalk, opening its petals to the morning sun.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Hundred and One Famous Poems: With a Prose Supplement All are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of Time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing useless is, or low; Each thing in its place is best; And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. For the structure that we raise, Time is with materials filled; Our todays and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build. Truly shape and fashion these; Leave no yawning gaps between; Think not, because no man sees, Such things will remain unseen.
