LIFE
AND
LITERARY REMAINS
OF
L. E. L.
BY LAMAN BLANCHARD.
IN TWO VOLUMES.
VOL. I.
"It is a weary and a bitter hour,
When first the real disturbs the poet's world,
And he distrusts the future. Not for that
Should cold despondency weigh down the soul,
It is a glorious gift, bright Poetry,
And should be thankfully and nobly used.
Let it look up to Heaven!"— L. E. L.
