Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Bayard Taylor With the exception of the drama of the "Prophet," the dramatic poems of the 'Masque of the Gods" and "Prince Deukalion," and the poetical translation of Goethe's "Faust," the present volume contains the entire poetical works of Bayard Taylor. To the poems which were published in a collected or a separate form, during the author's life, the editors have added a not inconsiderable number of heretofore unpublished poems which were found among his manuscripts, in a more or less finished state, and which, therefore, have not undergone that severe revision to which the author would have subjected them had he lived to offer them to the public in a permanent shape. The editors say this in justice to Taylor's reputation as a poet; in explanation, not in apology, for having presented the reader with works which their author may have regarded as unfinished when they last came beneath his eyes. It is our purpose to make the following collection of Taylor's poems as complete as is possible, and to omit from it nothing in a poetical form, with the exceptions above mentioned, to which he once gave his serious attention. Poetry was the literary element in which Taylor lived and moved and had his being; to which all other efforts and all other ambitions were subjected, as vassals to a sovereign; and to success in which he gave more thoughtful labor, and held its fruits in higher esteem than all the world and all the other glories thereof. He travelled pen in hand; he delivered course after course of lectures in the brief nightly pauses of his long winter journeys; he wrote novels, he wrote editorials, criticisms, letters, and miscellaneous articles for the magazines and the newspapers; he toiled as few men have toiled at any profession or for any end, and he wore himself out and perished prematurely of hard and, sometimes, bitter work. It is consoling to know that throughout his laborious life, which brought his sensitive, poetical nature into daily contact with stupidity, ignorance, grossness, and with the consequential vulgarity of conceited dolts, he had something to cheer and to comfort him in those solitary hours through which less imaginative men brood over the wrongs and the disgusting histories of their world, and harden themselves against the future in a crust of cynical misanthropy. We, who knew him intimately, can safely say that he passed no such desponding hours. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
