Excerpt from Selections From American Poetry: With Special Reference to Poe, Longfellow, Lowell, and Whittier

IF we define poetry as the heart Of man expressed in beauti ful language, we shall not say that we have no national poetry. True, America has produced no Shakespeare and no Milton, but we have an inheritance in all English literature; and many poets in America have followed in the footsteps of their literary British forefathers.
