ANY of these Poems, extending over a period of several years, have appeared anonymously in Chambers's Journal and elsewhere. The frequent reprinting of them, here and in America, has induced the author to collect, select, revise, and claim her errant children.

Whether they were worth collecting, and are really "Poems," public opinion must decide.

The present edition in the "Blue and Gold" series contains many pieces not heretofore collected.
