Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of Imagination and Fancy The greatest thing in poetry is the comfort it gives the human heart. It comes like a friend into the inner sanctuary of the soul, with its throbbing love, its calming philosophy, and its revelation of God and eternity. Nothing else can do this so completely as literature, and poetry, the highest form of literature. Poetry is like music, and also like painting. Like music it rolls like the rolling of the waves, or murmurs like the Wind among the trees, or rolls and murmurs and whispers all at the same time, like a beautiful summer's day when all the birds are singing and the sun is shining and the owers are blooming, and the sky is blue, and the air is soft and warm. Like painting it reproduces the blue sky, the delicate green leaves, the long sweep of the waves, and the dew-drops on the grass in the morning sunlight. Tennyson was the greatest modern master of the technique of music in words and beautiful pictures in words. Like Paderewski he learned to touch the keys of language and produce an infinite variety of pleasing, beautiful sounds; and beyond any painter he could with words weave exquisitely perfect and entrancing images and scenes, that were like a mosaic of diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphires, reproducing violets, roses, long, lush ferns, stately trees, and still fairer women and heroic men.

I do not know, nor do I care, When it was, or how, or where I gained the heart of fairy-land: All I know and all I care - As celestial memory Of a rosy revery With gladd'ning song returns to me- Is to feel that I was there!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pains of the Imagination: A Poem, Read Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society at Dartmouth College, August 19, 1824 The Poem was intended as a counterpart of the pleasures OF imagination, by Dr. Akenside, although it was written without a single recurrence to the pages of that work, or indeed to any other, with the exception of a passage in Virgil, for the purpose of asoer taining the correctness of a classical allusion. This circumstance is not set down to the score of merit, but may plead in extenuation of the faults of the performance, some of which might, perhaps, have been avoided by a fuller analysis of the subject, and an examination of analogous productions. It is proper to remark, that the word imagi nation is used in the vague and popular sense, sanctioned by the autho rity of standard writers, who employ the term as synonymous with fancy, comprehending under it nearly the whole mind, instead of re stricting it, With metaphysical precision, to that faculty which com pounds or combines ideas already received through the senses, and thus forms new creations and images of its own.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children of Fancy: Poems The tide is now at the ebb and I hear it swirling among the rocks and regurgitating in ceaseless eddyings through the long weed, that waits with slender, tensile fingers to entangle and drag down some unwary swimmer. The wind is blowing in squalls, suddenly blackening the water and lightly carrying off the surface and blowing it to smoke; while behind me the grass and the young corn change in silvery patches with the passing gusts. But amid it all I see her little face, that with its great mysterious grey eyes still shines in undimmed beauty from the past, and to which these verses are dedicate. It was once, and it shall be again; the tide will return and the wind will fall away. I have not always known, but yesterday I climbed the Hills of the Mist, and shook the unyielding bars of the gates of Death; and then I knew; - What is one life in immortality?
