Excerpt from The Columbiad: A Poem It is not my intention, when offering the Columbiad to the public, to make any apology; for if it be worthy of attention, it will require none: if it should not, any apology I can offer will not remedy the defect. Far less do I intend to seek shelter under the plea of having been induced to publish it at the solicitation of my friends; they knew nothing whatever of my intention.

Excerpt from Columbian: And Other Poems During these years new scenes and new sights have come up before him - the Centennial of which he has written, and is to be found in this volume has come and passed, western scenes have been traced out, the quadrennial is now upon us, and all together the poet has reason to congratulate himself upon the very many things that have come before him to aid his inspiration. How well he has portrayed these scenes in this little volume is for the reader to say, after having perused these verses, though it may not be amiss in him to say that under all the circumstances combined, he feels confident that no one will condemn or severely criticise these writings if thoroughly read and understood. If, by the perusal of these poems it should bring happiness to the reader and thereby help make the pathway of life more pleasant, the author will be more than repaid.

Excerpt from The Columbiad, Vol. 2 of 2: A Poem She comes, the fiend! Her grinning jaws expand, Her brazen eyes cast lightning o'er the strand, Her wings like thunder-clouds the welkin sweep, Brush the tall spires and shade the shuddering deep; She gains the deck, displays her wonted store, Her cords and scourges wet with prisoners' gore; 50 Gripes, pincers, thumb-screws spread beneath her feet, Slow poisonous drugs and loads of putrid meat; Disease hangs drizzling from her slimy locks, And hot contagion issues from her box.

Excerpt from Lyrics of the Southland If women all were roses, dear, And bloomed from June till May, I'd pluck and keep you for my own, Forever and a day. In my heart's album I would place Your petals sweet and rare, And shelter safely from life's storms Your form so frail and fair. I'd watch and guard you zealously Against cold blasts unseen, And on my throne of purest love I'd have you reign as queen. And when your beauty faded, dear, I'd brighten it with love, For value I your love, sweetheart, \next to the things above.

NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS The Columbiad: A Poem This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Excerpt from Anacaona, and Other Poems Their history is recorded in Washington Irving's Life of Columbus. The blotting out of their tribes and their tragic deaths at the hands of the Spaniards, deserve just condemnation. Their true nobility of character shines all the more brightly in contrast with the low and sordid motives of their defamers and Slayers. The writer presents to a discriminating public, this just tribute to their memory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
