Excerpt from Memoir and Letters
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was once greatly pleased when a friend referred to him as "the brother of a poet." He fully appreciated the implication.
The poet intended was Samuel Longfellow, whose memory it is sought to perpetuate by the publication of this volume.
Not deficient, as his beautiful hymns attest, in that power of poetical expression with which genius so richly endowed the elder Longfellow, Samuel shared fully with his gifted brother the poetic instinct and the poets temperament.
In dignity and simplicity of character; in sweetness and serenity of disposition; in the single love of truth, and in the pure spirituality of his life and all its motives, no man ever surpassed him.
