The Ladye Lillian And Other Poems Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Ladye Lillian, and Other Poems With you, kind reader, who may honor these pages with a perusal, I would have a word of prefatory and familiar chat - not by way of explaining the poems, for I venture to hope that they will be found of themselves sufficiently intelligible. I wish only to say that it is with some little trembling for the success of the venture that this work is launched upon the sea of Literature. Whether it is to be wafted safely into port by the genial breeze of public approbation to be wrecked upon the rocks of adverse criticism or - worst fate of all to founder silently in the dead calm of universal indifference time will decide. I hope for the best. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
