Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

Half a dozen words to the critic, who, in the profundity of his wisdom, may sit in judgment upon the merits of The Dreamer.

I seek not to disarm criticism, by stating that the publication of this volume suggested itself as a means of exiling its author to a sunnier clime; far away from the cold, foggy atmosphere of Britain; continued ill health and much suffering in prospective, having blighted fairer prospects than generally fall to the share of the struggling poet.

No! In my case, I wish the reviewer to be just before he is generous; If the poem has any merit - the acknowledgment of such merit by the voice of impartial criticism, will fall most sweetly upon my ears: if it has none, its condemnation will be an act of justice both to the public and the author.
