Book excerpt: Book Excerpt: re! my pipe is out. Let me light it again and consider. I have no illusions about myself. I am not fool enough to think I am a poet, but I have a knack of rhyme and I love to make verses. Mine is a tootling, tin-whistle music. Humbly and afar I follow in the footsteps of Praed and Lampson, of Field and Riley, hoping that in time my Muse may bring me bread and butter. So far, however, it has been all kicks and no coppers. And to-night I am at the end of my tether. I wish I knew where to-morrow's breakfast was coming from. Well, since rhyming's been my ruin, let me rhyme to the bitter end. It Is Later Than You Think Lone amid the cafe's cheer, Sad of heart am I to-night; Dolefully I drink my beer, But no single line I write. There's the wretched rent to pay, Yet I glower at pen and ink: Oh, inspire me, Muse, I pray, ~It is later than you think!~ Hello! there's a pregnant phrase. Bravo! let me write it down; Hold it with a hopeful gaze, Gauge i Read More

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bohemian Legends and Other Poems Tion, that history and heroism have furnished few sub jects for the Bohemian national songs, and, he says, is the more remarkable when they are compared or con trasted with those of other Slavonian races, especially the Servian and the Russian. But how should such songs exist - or rather if they ever existed, how should they be long preserved in a state of society where no man dares to be a Bohemian? That freedom of thought and expression which opens to the poet the great expanse of space and time - the whole field of the past and the future - which allows him to revel in all that is delight ful in recollection, and in all that is beautiful in anticipation - is denied to the minstrel of Bohemia. He may neither record the struggles of his ancestors for liberty, nor dream of the day when self-government shall give to his country whatever of happiness she is capable of enjoying. Love, of all the passions which he is permitted to sing, is that which allows the widest scope to his imagination - and love is the ever-ruling subject of his verse. And surely their popular poets have treated this subject with exquisite tenderness and effect. These are the opinions and words of two Englishmen, who trod before me thethorny path of Bohemian literature. Had their works been published in Austria, the same fate that met my book, Bohemian Legends and Ballads, would have met them. They would have been confiscated. Dr. John Bowring, speak ing of poor Hanka, says: It is to be hoped that no impediment will be thrown in his way, which one cannot but fear, from the arbitrary suppression of the fifth volume of his collection. It is not much to allow, that those who have no hope of the future may be permitted to indulge in the memories of the past. This sin I committed, and so my poor.
