Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Memory of Lincoln: Poems Selected With an Introduction
The memory of Abraham Lincoln is preserved through the record of the impressions he made upon many minds representing many phases of thought and action in war and peace. Since this record deals in general with outward acts, it is well worth while to supplement it by a consideration of inward impulses. The outward act is but the flowering of a seed which lies within the soul. To this interior ground the poets guide our eyes, and what they reveal to us there explains everything. It is needed but to know truly the heart of a man in order to be sure of the words he will speak and the deeds he will perform when the occasion is ripe for speech and action.

Excerpt from The Memory of Lincoln: Poems Selected With an Introduction
Grateful acknowledgment is due to Mr. John James Piatt, Mr. Richard Henry Stoddard, Mr. Edmund Clarence Stedman, Mr. Richard Watson Gilder, Dr. S. Weir Mitchell, Mr. Maurice Thompson, Messrs. Houghton, Mifflin, & Co., Messrs. Charles Scribner's Sons, Mr. George Boker and The J. B. Lippincott Co., Messrs. Harper & Brothers, and The Century Co., for permission to reprint poems written or controlled through copyright by them. The publishers of Walt Whitman are the publishers of the present volume, for which, moreover, the poem by Mr. Paul Laurence Dunbar was written. Of Mr. R. H. Stoddard's sonnet, "Abraham Lincoln," the last two lines have been changed by the author for the republication of the poem in this place. The frontispiece of the volume is used through the courtesy of Messrs. A. W. Elson & Co., by whom the original picture is copyrighted.
The Editor would especially record his obligation to the New York State Library School at Albany for the use of an unpublished bibliography of poems relating to Lincoln - the work of Miss Mary L. Sutliff. Though the selections presented here are few, it is believed that by the aid of this bibliography the broad field from which they are taken has been entirely surveyed.
