Excerpt from Help for Mothers and for Others: Rhymes
In sending forth this little volume of verses, the writer prefers to designate them as Rhymes and not as Poems. Their composer does not claim that they sprang from the fountains of poetic genius, nor that his pen-point caught afire from a poet's burning altar. The little effusions, however, are more or less characterized by rhyme and rhythm, and may stimulate some wholesome thought and sentiment. The title - Help For Mothers and For Others - is explained by the fact that while the composer of the stanzas has had in mind various classes of readers, yet several of the short compositions in Part One are designed to assist mothers and other teachers of the young, in child-training. The contents of Part Two may serve to kindle healthy thought and feeling - such as the Voice and Views of nature-being are fitted to em courage. Part Four, it is hoped, will bring a modicum of comfort and spiritual strength to the old.
In the remaining sections, it is desired that all classes and ages among the readers may find an uplifting and otherwise beneficial influence, as the stanzas are reviewed. A few of the productions have been used in song.
May our Father, our blessed Saviour, and the Holy Spirit so favor the collection as a whole, that the results shall be for the good of mankind and the glory of God.
Some one has said that the better portion of a life in this world, consists of its little nameless and unnumbered acts of kindness and love.
