With thanks for the liheral encouragement which has been bestowed upon the former works of the Nottingham Mechanic the author at length sends forth into the world a volume which he trusts will be deemed more worthy of public patronage. The idea of the chief poem Heber occurred to him many years ago while reading Vaughan s Church s Expectation. He was somewhat struck with the view taken of the last conflagration by that imaginative author, which view, however wide it might be from truth, was at least poetical. A developement of it forms at once the main plot of the poem, and the subject of the story Nitsol, which occupies the fifth book. Heber, the person from whom the poem takes its title, is represented as one of the escaped from earths last convulsion. He relates to other inhabitants of the world to come incidents or stories of the times of the four great convulsions through which it had passed. It may be asked why the author gave his chief character the name of Heber. The reason was simply as follows. For some years he had vainly enquired of every Hebrew scholar hemet with for a word which would serve for a human name and signify the escaped one.
