Book Description
Excerpt from Pictures in Prose and Verse: Or Personal Recollections of the Late Janet Hamilton, Langloan; Together With Several Hitherto Unpublished Poetic Pieces It is now upwards of twenty years since my first serious attempt at verse-making saw the light in the columns of a Glasgow newspaper; and sixteen years, last November, since my first collected volume, "Lays from the Poorhouse," was published. Since that time I have published, in all, five volumes of verse, equal in size to the present; and while the merit of having been a zealous worker may fairly be granted me, not even the most arrogant of readers, I respectfully submit, will venture to tell me that my zeal might have been expended in a better cause, seeing that the prime object I had in view was an honest endeavour to provide the common necessaries of life for myself and family. "The Muse, poor hizzie," did not find me in so congenial a situation as she found our national Bard in, at the plough, but within the dreary walls of a Poorhouse.
