Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mountains and Other Nature Sketches While the field study of birds and of the trees that were characteristic of any locality, was a recreation full of pleasure for him, back of all and above all, he felt the appeal of the mountains. The moun tains satisfied him; they rested him. More than twenty times he visited the White Hills of New Hampshire; sometimes returning to the scene of a former stay, often going to a new point from which to study them. He went among them, he went around them and to the tops of many of them. Other mountain regions claimed him from time to time; but this was his mountain home.

Download or read book Nature Pictures by American Poets Classic Reprint written by Annie Russell Marble and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature Pictures by American Poets The editor's aim in this compilation has been to select, from the works of representative American poets, certain pictures of nature, either vignettes of specific objects or broad landscape effects. There has been a hope that the book might aid in nature study and might foster aesthetic observation and culture. The selections are all taken from authors of high literary rank, with the desire to promote among the younger students a further acquaintance with con temporaneous poets, and, at the same time, to recall familiarly certain classic American poems of description and narration. Doubtless the selections disclose sins of commission and of omission. The editor deeply regrets the ah sence of poems by Sidney Lanier, since satisfactory arrangements could not be made with his publishers. In the introduction, however, tribute has been paid to the poet's sensitive and melodious nature pictures.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature and Other Poems Look not herein any who would delight In tricks of fancy, and unnatural thought, Strained types and similes, rags and tatters, brought From distant nowhere to confound the sight, - Those crooked shapes, descending from the height Of unsubstantial space, or deeply sought In caverns, with much fearful labour wrought; Not in such torments would I choose to write: But, were I master, I would pay good heed First, to be straight and simple, not too bold, Too over-florid, fond of tinsel-gold, But strong in substance, native to the deed, Where the most stubborn wit could plainly read, Like those clear-voiced immortal bards of old.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life Sketches and Poems I write this, dear reader, hoping there may be some good results attained, by simple means. At the age of sixty-eight years I was very sick, and for weeks I hovered between two worlds. It appeared that I was on a cloud; I had beautiful visions; I could see a lovely river, and across that river mound after mound of beautiful flowers, and as far as my eyes could look, foliage that nature could not compare with. When I came back to myself I was very much surprised. I always loved poetry, but could not compose it. Before I had strength to write it down it came rushing upon me in volumes. A large part passed without being noted; that I could not re member. But when there was a friend near to write it down, that we kept. You will find dreams that came to me in poetry. I am not an author or a poet. When those attacks pass away I cannot rhythm one verse. I cannot say I have any power over it. Some of my pieces would hang over me for days, in a broken form. Then, perhaps in the twilight, when nature was at rest, they would come in form, and I would have to write for hours. I am at a loss to tell what this is. It has influenced me to write a part of my life, and give it to the public. It is from the pen of an old lady upwards of three score and ten years.

Download or read book A Dramatic Sketch written by Sumner Lincoln Fairfield and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dramatic Sketch: With Other Poems Dear Potts: Poetry has been to me a singular delight and peculiar happiness - an abundant reward and consolation. In the darkest hours of adversity, it has been my only light; in the loneliest solitude, my only friend; amid a heartless world the only faithful thing. I profess not what I feel not - indifference to fame; but that has not been my keenest incentive to composition; that may be a halo which fades as soon as seen - a wreath that withers in the grasp - a beautiful dream, preluding no reality. But the Aonides have blessed me with higher and purer pleasures; pleasures indestructible, because passed beyond the scoff of envy or the sneer of derision. The happiest hours of my life have been the gift of Poetry; and, however personal malevolence or literary partiality may neglect or contemn a y productions, I shall always revere that divine art which brings oblivion of poverty and wrong to the bleeding breast. I know very well what is the fate of our choicest native flowers; "the trail of the serpent is over them all" - and that serpent is neglect. But I can endure this destiny with more equanimity, since my secret hours of affliction have been blessed by the purest intellectual enjoyment. Flattery cannot elevate nor malignity depress the consciousness of what is due to me; I shall never be rendered giddy by applause, nor miserable by censure; sensible that contemporary criticism is seldom ingenuous, and that time reverses the capricious judgments of men. If I had been the slave of opinion, I should ere this have been the victim of persecution; if abuse had wounded, its many arrows would have slain. But I bless my God, that he gave me a mind which acknowledges no accountability but to itself and its Creator; relies solely on its own resources; and joys or grieves purely from the impulsions of its own energies.
