Excerpt from The Pilgrim and Other Poems Or, if sooth the stories say, Sandalled priest, or knight in selle, Flying each in pain and hate, Harassed by stout fiends of hell, Sought his crime to expiate. Prithee, Pilgrim, go not hence; Clear thy brow, and white thy hand, What shouldst thou with penitence? Wherefore seek to Holy Land?

Excerpt from The White Pilgrim, and Other Poems I DO not remember in what part of Moore's works I once read the first tremulous remarks he made when, for the first time, he committed a volume of poetry to the world, and appealed to it as a poet. Plays which have' only appeared in dramatic form, stray verses which magazines have absorbed, look very different to the writer when first he contemplates them in the ambitious form of a book, and trembles for his own venture. May this find lenient judges and kindly friends. And let me express the h0pe that the political verses which form part of it may be taken in the spirit in which they are written, of freedom from offence. I have carefully revised them with that view, conscious that ex pressions which may pass for the moment should have no longer life than' cc gue m'wnt les plazirantm'es.

Excerpt from The Pilgrims: And Other Poems We thank thee for the landing here, Upon this strange, stern shore, Of those who, midst the scenes most drear, Triumphant courage wore. For each heroic soul, 0 Lord, We bless thy name this day, 'twas theirs to listen for thy word, And then thy word obey! So they were formed for service great Those men of noble mould, Within their homes in Church and State, Mid duties manifold. In all their praises thee we praise! Thou wert their God and Guide; Serene, they marched through thorny ways Through hardships multiplied! God of the Nations! Still befriend The country of their love.

Excerpt from The Heavenly Pilgrim, and Other Poems The Heavenly Pilgrim How blessed the peace Which a saint only knows, That over his heart Like a calm river flows, That lights all his path, On mountain or plain, And deepens his joy, And softens his pain! His pilgrimage here Amid sorrows may lie, But the silver of love Doth each cloud glorify. Though poverty comes, And a shelter denies, He cheerfully sings Of his home in the skies! His burden of sin, That so heavily bore, Is cast in the sea And remembered no more. His robes have been washed In the blood of the Lamb, And his heart is aglow With the heavenly flame!

Excerpt from The Pilgrim of Beauty; The Cottager's Sabbath: And Other Poems, Now First Collected The Writer of the following pages is not an author by profession, nor has he the slightest hope of profit. In their publication. His experience justifies an opposite inference, and he is not disposed to quarrel with the judgment of the public. With a natural tendency to the exercise of the imagination, his avocations, from a very early age, have been of a most engrossing character 5 and the indulgence of his fancy has been allowed purely as a relaxation from labours that have never claimed so little as half of the twenty-four hours which compose the day. The weariness of bodily fatigue has been forgotten in the exercise of the mind, and the actual sorrows of life have been subdued by imaginary griefs. If perfection in the craft of authorship has not been attained, it is still a source of gratification that no duty of life has been neglected in its pursuit.

Excerpt from The Forest Pilgrims, and Other Poems Fair ones, said he, fond children of my love, William, Matilda, may the powers above Direct our counsels and our footsteps guide When far away we wander side by side.
