Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

A rouse, my friends, and suffer not yourselves To pine and die, base melancholy slaves. Such was I once, and such might have remained, Until the dark death angel bore me hence, Had not the light of reason burst the gloom AY hich long had shrouded my benighted soul. I saw the folly of despondency, And then resolved that, come whateer there might Of lifes vicissitudes or earthly woes, I still would be the same in ease or pain; A like unmoved amidst triumphant gleams Of fair success in what I undertook; Or when the clouds of failure hovered oer My purposed path, and hid the star of hope. Why should we droop and wither, like a plant Of tender birth beneath the orb of day? We are not things, but men, of noble worthy And framed to execute some high resolve. Our duty is to bless our fellow-kind, A nd. in that act, be doubly blessed ourselves; For any deed of good which we perform Will be a source of peace in after years.

As America hurtles toward, and then fights the First World War, Woodworth's poems become increasingly focused on issues of justice and equality. The author is a keen observer of the human condition and his work is full of insights into the nature of love, loss, and the search for meaning in a complex and often chaotic world.
