Book Description
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of James Montgomery, Vol. 1 of 4 On the appearance of a new edition of these collected works, at so late a period of his long and desultory course, the Author feels himself justified in giving more publicity than would formerly have been expedient to some of those peculiar circumstances, which, having governed his choice of subjects, and influenced his manner of handling them in his earlier compositions, have continued more or less to determine the character and tone of the whole. The small pieces, accompanying "The Wanderer Of Switzerland," in the first volume, which gained for him a name, however humble, among his poetical contemporaries, were almost exclusively personal; - reveries, reminiscences, and anticipations referring to blighted hopes, existing troubles, and fearful forebodings of evils to come.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of James Montgomery, Vol. 1 of 4: Including Several Poems Now First Collected, With a Sketch of His Life He was so disheartened by this circumstance, that, on occasion of a misuhderstanding with Mr. Harrison, he, at the end of eight months, quitted the metropolis, and returned to Wath, where he was received with a hearty welcome by his former employer. While in London, having been advised to turn his attention in prose, as mean profitable than verse, he composed an eastern story which he took one evening to-a publish er in the east end of the town. Being directed through the shop, to the private room of the great man, he' presented his manuscript in form. The prudent bookseller read the title, marked the number of pages, counted the lines in a page, and made a calculation of 'the whole; then turning to the author, who stood in astonishment at this summary mode of deciding on the merit of a work of imagination, he very civilly return ed the copy, saying, Sir, your manuscript is too small it won't do for me - take it to he publishes these kind of things. Montgomery retreated with so much confgeion from the presence of the bookseller, that in passing through the shop, he dashed his unfortunate head against a patent lamp, broke the glass, spilled the oil, and making an awkward apology to the shopmen, who were tittering behind the counter, to the no small mortification of the poor author, be rushed into the street, equally unable to restrain his venation. Or his laughter, and retired to his home, filled with chagrin and disappointment at this ludicrous and untoward misadventure.
