Synopsis
Excerpt from First and Last Poems
Four years ago, and in the last weeks of her life, my sister tried to dissuade me from attempting any further publication of verse, saying in her usual calm manner, 'i have long known that there is no public for us.' Nevertheless, I have ventured on printing nearly all the mature work that she left behind her, either in manuscript or in books long out of print. I have, moreover, made up my mind to do the same, though with much less confidence, with my own compositions. I can only hope that a portion of the kind indulgence with which my attempt to perpetuate ber memory has been received may be extended to my less sanguine endeavours in my own behalf.
