Book Description
Excerpt from Musings by Pequit Brookside Having from youth to age scribbled rhyme occasionally I have selected from a mass of manuscript the following pieces, which I thought might not prove wholly devoid of interest to my friends and acquaintances. I am fully aware that much of the verse now published - not excepting the present volume - rigid criticism would hardly admit to be poetry. I do not, however, share the sentiments of those who entertain the opinion that if poetry is not of the highest order it is therefore useless and almost execrable, but believe that even the lower grades may subserve a valuable purpose. If they do not "refine the heart and elevate the soul," they may furnish precepts which tend to guide the young and inexperienced into the paths of rectitude and virtue.
