Sinopsis

This book is a diverse collection of poems by an unknown author in the 19th century. The author writes about love, romance, war and the human condition. The author is particularly eloquent about injustice, and many of the poems give voice to the pain and suffering of the oppressed, particularly in "After The War" and "The Suicide." Here, the author displays an empathy beyond their time, and a genuine concern for the welfare of others. The poems also explore the natural world with great appreciation and awe and are frequently celebratory in tone, such as "The Battle of Manila".

Excerpt from Shots at Random

And wheresoever there may be a mind Attuned to beauty, and to truth akin, There welcome waiteth for you unconfined, There shall ye dwell when ye have entered in That soul thenceforth shall know his blessings' store The richer for your coming, evermore.

But, if perchance, no friendly hand outreach, No gentle heart find pleasure in your page, Too Mammon-maddened for your words to teach, Too sordid, too sophistical the age, Then rest ye in this confidence sublime, Ye are immortal, ye can bide your time!
