Book excerpt: Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes, Which all the day with ceaseless care have sought The magic gold which from the seeker flies; Ere dreams put on the gown and cap of thought, And make the waking world a world of lies, - Of lies most palpable, uncouth, forlorn, That say life's full of aches and tears and sighs, - Oh, how with more than dreams the soul is torn, Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes. Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes, How all the griefs and heart-aches we have known Come up like pois'nous vapors that arise From some base witch's caldron, when the crone, To work some potent spell, her magic plies. The past which held its share of bitter pain, Whose ghost we prayed that Time might exorcise, Comes up, is lived and suffered o'er again, Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes. Ere sleep comes down to soothe the weary eyes, What phantoms fill the dimly lighted room; What ghostly shades in awe-creating guise Are bodied forth within the teeming gloom. What echoes faint of sad and soul-sick cries, And pangs of vague inexplicable pain

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lyrics of Lowly Life In fact, from every part of Ohio and from several cities of the adjoining States, there came letters in cordial appreciation of the critical recognition which it was my pleasure no less than my duty to offer Paul Dunbar's work in another place. It seemed to me a happy omen for him that so many people who had known him, or known of him, were glad of a stranger's good word 5 and it was gratifying to see that at home he was esteemed for the things he had done rather than because as the son of negro slaves he had done them. If a prophet is Often without honor in his own country, it surely is nothing against him when he has it. In this case it deprived me of the glory of a discoverer but that is sometimes a barren joy, and I am always willing to forego it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar: With the Introduction to Lyrics of Lowly Life I think' I should scarcely trouble the reader with a Special appeal in behalf Of this book, if it had not specially appealed to me for reasons apart from the author's race, origin, and condition. The world is too Old now, and I find myself too much Of its mood, to care for the work of a poet because he is black, because his father and mother were slaves, because he was, before and after he began to write poems, an elevator-boy. These facts would certainly attract me to him as a man, if I knew him to have a literary ambition, but when it came to his literary art, I must judge it irrespective Of these facts, and enjoy or endure it for what it was in itself.
