Excerpt from Desultory Verse Some of these verses have appeared in various publications, most of which are still in circulation, but by far the greater number were published during the last few years in the New York Sun. To the proprietors and editors of these publications I give my best thanks for their kindness in permitting me to republish my work. What was at first offered piecemeal is now presented in a collective form, with the hope that the public will endorse the editorial approval.

Excerpt from Windfalls: A Volume of Desultory Verse I feel that a word of explanation is due for having printed these poems. I have called them Windfalls because I expect that the general criticism will be that they are hopelessly immature and ought never to have been printed. That is very likely true; yet if one does not publish one's Juvenilia while one is still juvenile, one probably will never publish them at all; but certain good friends of mine persuaded me that some persons at any rate appreciated my poems, so on their advice and to celebrate my legal coming of age I venture to add one more to the list of minor poets.

Excerpt from Orient Harping: A Desultory Poem, in Two Parts The Second part °assumes a more serious tone. As the First set forth some prominent things in the practice, faith, and prospects of the Hindoos, it seem cd desirable to form a contrast by introducing a brief view of the nature and effects of the Christian Religion; and the doctrine of the resurrection from the dead according to revealed truth, presenting such a delicate picture to the romantic mind, and such a force of evidence to the understanding in opposition to the whimsical fables of the Eastern mythology, it was at once selected as a theme well calculated to relieve the attention so long detained amongst the prodigies of the shasters.

Excerpt from Tales in Verse This volume is not for the Critic. I do not say that it is not for Review. Such preface needs explanation, and perhaps apology. I give the latter first, having no quarrel with Critics or Reviewers. Those of either class who have noticed my previous work have given it its full due, Often more than its due and when the genuine Critic has taken it in hand, I have always found that the flaws pointed out were apparent from his point of view. I am not myself a professional critic of poetry, but a somewhat desultory student. Still, one who has written in rhythm for more than.

Excerpt from Our Country; Its Dangers and Its Destiny: A Desultory Poem, Pronounced Before the Allegheny Literary Society at Its Semi-Annual Celebration, September 2, 1841 I AM by no means certain that the following Poem should ever have been permitted to see the light, at least in its present form. Aside from the request of the respectable Association before which it was originally delivered, the principal reason that induces me to publish it is, my desire to dedicate it to a highly valued friend and school-mate, whose early promise of usefulness and distinction (and it was great) has been blighted by long, severe, and, ' my fears suggest, hopeless sickness. Even this reason, potent as it is, would not avail with me, could I entertain any rational expectation of soon presenting for his acceptance a more elaborate and worthier work; but, inclination aside, the nature of my every day duties is such as to render it morally certain that I shall give no new volume to the public for many years - probably never. For the fate of this thin pamphlet, I'have neither anxiety nor apprehension. Let the critics do to it as seemeth good in their sight. It is lawful game for them - and dull must that reviewer be, and singularly free from opinions upon contro verted questions, who cannot find in its pages something to condemn. That there is some poetry in it, prejudice alone will deny - that many of its passages are little better than un mitigated prose, the candid will unhesitatingly admit. It was written hurriedly, at intervals snatched from more pressing engagements; and the limited time allowed for its completion.

Excerpt from Wordsworth and His Circle This book does not aim at being a biography of Wordsworth, though it is strung on a biographical thread; and, as the title indicates, it is in many places as much about Wordsworth's contemporaries as about himself. As my method is deliberately desultory, I have tried, with whatever success, to be on my guard against repetition, the attendant shadow of desultoriness. The first chapter, being introductory, contains a kind of forecast, or summary in advance, of the chief contents of the chapters that follow. It is impossible to be even initiated into Wordsworth without knowing, and knowing well, a great deal of his poetry. I have, therefore, not stinted myself in quotation and comment, though I have tried to avoid the reproduction of verses which might conceivably be regarded as trite or insignificant. In the Appendix will be found references for those quotations the whereabouts of which is not clearly shown in the text. The prefixed list Of authorities may serve the double purpose of showing the sources from which I have drawn, and guiding the reader who may wish to go more deeply into the subject.

Excerpt from The Works, in Verse and Prose, of the Late Robert Treat Paine, Jun; Esq.: With Notes, to Which Are Prefixed, Sketches of His Life, Character and Writings The manuscripts required nothing but arrangement and selection; but the printed essays were often to be recovered from journals, which, having been long since discontinued, were not always remembered. Newspapers and 'magazines for a series of twenty years were to be consulted. From this examination, though far from heedless or desultory, it is not improbable that many pieces have escaped.
