Excerpt from A Reverie, and Other Poems
Was meant not, Reader, that this book should be An open page for public scrutiny I claim not, that the verse is true or good, Or that the rhymes, flow smoothly as they should It was not meant, that e'en thy friendly eye Shouldst scan the lines, or mark where errors lie. I reckless wrote Whate'er you may find here, To please a whim, and not the critic's ear. I do not call it poetry, but only rhymes Wrung from my foolish pen, at various times Times when my heart was sad and ill at ease, Or idle moments be it which you please. My Muse, is not one which I can command Whene'er I choose, or with a ready hand Note down, the half-completed shapeless train Of thought, which swells and surges through my brain.
For oft-times things of beauty, visions rare, Have crossed my spirit, midst the thoroughfare Of business, and the daily scenes of lite Then, quickly vanquished been, without a strife. A merchant cannot well a poet be.
