Excerpt from In Nature's Temple

These poems and sketches were written during a period of over sixty years. I am aware that however it may have been in those Old days when I was young, it is now an Offence to indulge in poesy. I can only plead in mitigation that like many who love the sweet Strains Of music, I love the har mony Of words when they convey thought and sentiment, and that I have taken my part in the active affairs Of life, Spending only leisure hours with poesy, which I sometimes did not have for years. I have only indulged in verse when the spirit Of the Muses said Write. Whether I have merited the smiles or frowns of the Goddess of Song it is for you, gentle readers, to decide. You are the judge and the jury combined. From your verdict there is no appeal.
