Excerpt from Seatonian Poems
It need hardly be said that, in writing, one by one, the following Poems, I never had the most distant idea of collecting them into a volume.
The publisher, however, finding that they were enquired for, not only at the time of their appearance, but some years after, requested me to allow their republication in a collected form.
Even so, I was unwilling to sanction a reprint which can have interest for so very few: but the offer on condition of their republication, of help to a work of charity, in which I am dearly interested, overcame my repugnance.
I have since had cause to be thankful that I gave way; in that I have thus been allowed to dedicate these Seatonians to my Bishop.
