Poems (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Poems

The Author of the following Poems had no intention of making them public at the time of his composition, which he did for his own amusement, till meditating upon the information, as well as entertainment, they might give to the learned reader, concluded upon the same.

The subjects he has wrote upon are, according to his estimation, worthy their notice. He will not attempt here to induce the reader to an approbation of this work; for if he does not approve it for its utility, as well as information, the Author cannot think that he will sooner by any recommendation in a preface.

The subject of the first poem, which is chiefly pastoral, is a Morning Walk in the Month of September; intended to give a pleasing description of the country at early morn, as well as of the harvest, and to divert the mind from atheistic principles and lethargy.
