Synopsis
Excerpt from Lord Healey: And Other Poems
IN presenting this, my first work, before the reading public, I have no apology to make for such temerity in so doing; as I intend to launch my poetical bark upon the broad ocean of public opinion, without a desire to curry favor with any one, nor with a disposition to avert any un due criticism that might be made upon this volume: for even ifi should have a hope of attaining either of the fore going Objects by advancing an apology for its publication, Iwould not do so. I do not send these children of my brain into the cold, pitiless world as mendicants, but as those who are able and willing to give a just and fair equivalent for value received. But should the public think otherwise, it will be all very well and good: they (my works) must stand or fall, according to their merits or de merits. I ask no favors or conditions: all I request is a full and impartial hearing, letting the results be what they may. Yet, trusting in the benign influence, who guards and directs everything, that HE will smile upon these efforts and scatter blessings in their pathway, I now give forth the best fruits of the first fourteen years of my mature life, knowing full well that if I do not attain suc cess, I shall at least try to deserve it.
