Busy of brain and enamoured of authorship, yet precluded, by the peculiar stress of my daily duties, from the continuous leisure necessary to the writing of books, my only alternative has been to produce very occasionally such a fragmentary volume as the present. Such thoughts, however, as compose it have, from time to time, come to me, sometimes almost unbidden, and have cheered and stimulated me on numberless occasions. With little effort I have crystallized them into blank verse, for the sake of greater terseness and rememberableness and here present them to the reader in the earnest hope that they may have to him a similar ministry, even although, as is not unlikely, he may find many of the thoughts not of the newest.
