ОглавлениеTo JOHN G. WHITTIER:
An illustrious and venerated bard, who shares with you the love and honor of his countrymen, tells us that the poets are the best travelling companions. Like Orlando in the forest of Arden, they “hang odes on hawthorns and elegies on thistles.”
In the spirit of that delightful companionship, so graciously announced, it is to you, who have kindled on our aged summits that this volume is affectionately dedicated by
“The light that never was on sea or land,
The consecration and the poet’s dream.”
THE AUTHOR.
