Excerpt from Songs of the Apple Tree, With Kith and Kin
Of all the fruits with which prodigal nature has blessed mankind, there is none that has entered so intimately into every-day life as the Apple. Surely, then, the poetical side Of this Old friend, so beautifully and lovingly sung in almost every tongue, brings its own welcome.
We heartily thank both author and publisher for the permission granted us to reproduce copyrighted poems of the Apple family, and for the many warm letters Of encouragement, and treasures unearthed from old scrap-books.
If we have unwittingly trespassed upon the property and rights of others, we apologize and beg forgiveness, in the name of our mutual and lifelong friend, the Apple.
Errors there are many, which we request you to correct, and to make any suggestion that may aid in drawing together overlooked, and to us unknown, poems in print on this branch of the family.
To the spicy fruit now filling your bins and cellars we add the story of harvest, press, cider, and still, and hope, as the seasons come and go, to send forth the songs of blossom, tree.
