Excerpt from Through the Year With the Poets
The original contributions to August constitute an important feature of the volume. The chord of the month is firmly struck by three of these, - Miss Helen Gray Cone's August, which appears upon the title page; Now August Comes, by Mr. Clin'on Scollard; and The Year hath Reached its Afternoon, by Mr. Samuel Minturn Peck, a poet of whom Alabama is justly proud. Mid-august Midnight will readily be classed among Mrs. Harriet Prescott Spofford's finest efforts, and the August of Miss Edith Thomas is among that writer's best poems. Love-ia-idleness, by Mrs. Jane Goodwin Austin, and Dreaming in Living, by Mr. William Morton Fullerton, are like wise full of the August feeling; and In August, by Mr Robert Burns Wilson, the artist-poet of Kentucky, unites the observation of the artist with the inspiration of the poet.
To the various publishers who have so kindly given permission for the use of copyright poems, Messrs. D. Lothrop and Company express their sincerest thanks.
