Book Description
Excerpt from Humorous and Other Poetic Pictures: Legends and Stories of Devon "To their own merits modest men are dumb;" They ask a friend to blow and beat the drum! My Lords and Ladies, generous patrons all, Thanks for your quick responses to my call. When with this project to the post I started, I own I felt a little chicken-hearted: A thousand envelopes, stamped and directed; But, ah! how many answers were expected! Yet scarcely had a thousand minutes passed, Ere my subscription list was filling fast: A thousand kind replies! Doubt dropped her fetters, And I at once became "a man of letters!" Now, my Pegasus, up! and let this be A Preface worthy of my modesty. 'Tis usual, as every reader knows, To write the preface of a book in prose; But prefaces are dull things at the best, Putting one's patience to a frightful test, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Excerpt from Humorous and Other Poetic Pictures: Legends and Stories of Devon Thanks, my good friends, for the advice you give If all the same to you, I 'd rather live To reap the profit which my pen may earn, And leave Posterity's pale lamp to burn. A poet is not very much to blame Who writes for profit sure, and chances fame, And thinks that man almost a mortal sinner Who courts the Muse and goes without his dinner.
