Excerpt from Poems, Original and Selected

A few pieces are addressed to persons of a different character, such as rank high in literary taste and refine ment, to whom the writer would present some small remembrance of gratitude for kindnesses received. (that more of these do not appear proceeds from the want of copies of the original pieces.) These noble Spirits are perfectly convinced that she lays no claim to these attainments - as through misfortune, she has only been permitted to sip at the fount of common learning - and that peculiar circumstances have influenced her to make this humble effort; and if they see but little to approve, will not rashly censure.

The whole is interspersed with selections from differ ent authors, and intended to embellish the volume.
