Juvenile Blossoms (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Juvenile Blossoms IN an age, like the present, when every day presents a new offering to the Muses, some apology for the appearance of the following Miscellany may not un reasonably be expected. To gratify then the wishes of a few friends, the writer was tempted to turn author. In many of the minor pieces (he is aware) may be traced considerable inexperience in the art of composition. But the date, being annexed to each, will also determine the corresponding age of the com poser. Should these pages, therefore, meet the eye of critics, less indulgent to the efforts of the minstrel novice, than those who first suggested/their publica tion, he hopes, that with such the plea of youth will.
