Excerpt from The Pagan's Poems Most of the poets inform you that their productions are the results of hours of case - the fruits of idle moments. Mine are not. Whatever claim they may have to the title of poems, they certainly represent days and nights of the most difficult and exhaustive mental labor - labor that might have been more advantageously used for my own selfish advancement. In these productions, notwithstanding my pronounced views, I have studiously avoided all social, religious, and political prejudice, and have endeavored to clothe my lines with a purity and truth that would commend them to the conservative and refined intellect of all classes. While I do not claim for my poems "a beauty that is not of earth," I think them worthy of the attention you may choose to bestow upon them, and asking only a fair and honorable consideration of their merits, I submit them to your criticism, whatever it may be.
