Excerpt from The Works of Thomas Moore, Vol. 5: Comprending All His Melodies, Ballads, Etc., Never Before Published Without the Accompanying Music
Tms Poem, somewhat different in form, and much more limited in extent, was originally designed as an episode for a work, about which I have been, at intervals, employed during the last two years. Some months since, however, I found that my friend Lord Byron had, by an accidental coinci dence, chosen the same subject for a Drama and, as I could not but feel the disadvantage of coming after so formidable a rival, I thought it best to publish my humble sketch immediately, with such alterations and additions as I had time to make, and thus, by an earlier appearance in the literary horizon, give myself the chance of what astrono mers call an Heliacal rising, before the luminary, in whose light I was to'be lost, should appear.
