Excerpt from The Golden Treasury of the Best Songs and Lyrical Poems in the English Language This book in its progress has recalled often to my memory a man with whose friendship we were once honoured, to whom no region of English Literature was unfamiliar, and who, whilst rich in all the noble gifts of Nature, was most eminently distinguished by the noblest and the rarest, - just judgment and high hearted patriotism.
