Excerpt from Ballads of the War Busy times make busy men; if the bee would gather honey - the bee must be up and doing; - the river too, that would be the long and mighty, must accept all sizes and qualities of tributaries; for, having no ability either to refuse or choose, it must needs roll on, while every rivulet claims the right of companionship; and so, stirred by the times, and being unable to restrain my faculties when there was such volumes of hidden poetry in the many scenes now transpiring, I on August last, determined to do what I could to help along the great work of calling back the misguided and seceded brothers to the mighty family of States; to run my little voice in with the rolling thunder of an indignant people. It is with no common solicitude that I venture before the public as an author, knowing as I do these poems to be the hard work of hours snatched from the taxations and relaxations of a mentally exhaustive profession; and it has been a doubt with me, whether they do not bear the marks of haste or feebleness, and as a consequence have been stamped with tameness; if such should be the fact, I beg the Public's pardon, and only promise to try and do better in future, or not to do at all.
