Book Description
Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Alice and Ph be Cary: With a Memorial of Their Lives The poems of Alice and Ph be Cary were published in a joint volume during the life-time of the sisters; the first venture was made in this way in 1849, and the large public interested in their songs has ever since instinctively connected writers, who, bound together by peculiar tics, were as akin and as divergent in their poetry as they were in their natures. Subsequently to the first venture, they issued their volumes of poetry separately, but after their death, the editor of their writings, Mrs. Mary Clemmer, again associated them. Her Memorial contained their later poems; this volume was followed by the "Last Poems of Alice and Ph be Cary," and finally by "Ballads for Little Folk," again a joint collection. The poems, scattered thus through several volumes, are now brought together into a single volume, each writer having her own portion. To facilitate comparison and reference, it has been thought desirable to classify the poems upon a common plan which agrees substantially with that adopted by Mrs. Clemmer. The Memorial prepared by Mrs. Clemmer introduces the volume, and we add here the preface to the original edition. When at the request of the brothers of Alice and Ph be Cary, I sat down to write a Memorial of their lives, and looking through the entire mass of their papers, found not a single word of their own referring in any personal way to themselves, every impulse of my heart impelled me to relinquish the task. To tell the story of any human life, even in its outward incidents, wisely and justly, is not an easy thing to do. But to attempt a fit memorial of two women whose lives must be chiefly interpreted by inward rather than outward events, and solely from personal knowledge and remembrance, was a responsibility that I was unwilling to assume. With the utter absence of any data of their own, it seemed to me that the lives of the Cary sisters could only be produced from the combined reminiscences of all their more intimate personal friends. Months were consumed in writing to, and in waiting for replies from, long-time friends of the sisters. All were willing, but alas! they "had destroyed all letters," had forgotten "lots and lots of things that would have been interesting;" they were preoccupied, or sick; and, after months of waiting, I sat where I began, with the mass of Alice's and Ph be's unedited papers before me, and not an added line for their lives, with a new request from their legatees and executors that I should go on with the Memorial.
