Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoir and Letters
The poet intended was Samuel Longfellow, whose memory it is sought to perpetuate by the publication of this volume.
Not deficient, as his beautiful hymns attest, in that power of poetical expression with which genius so richly endowed the elder Longfellow, Samuel shared fully with his gifted brother the poetic instinct and the poet's temperament.
