Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Rhymes of an Editor: Including Almost

Then may the old man, so much labour done, Be not unwise or over-sanguine reckoned, In hazarding the gain already won In his first venture, by a bolder second SO to the kindly world whose first applause Has made all after-labour lighter, sweeter, These Rhymes go out, to plead their humble cause, In truest earnest, if in halting metre.

At worst, this thought may soften all the rest At fifty, the romantic day's completed; And, meet what fate it may, this second test Is final, and will never be repeated.
