Excerpt from Poems and Essays: Including the Fallen Chief, the Minstrel's Curse, Kenilworth
In regard to the poems written in boyhood and early youth, I could say with Wordsworth on a similar occasion, that it would be easy to amend them now both as to sentiment and expression; but, in the case of early and juvenile poems, such emendations are always made at the risk of injuring those characteristic features which, after all, will be regarded as the principal recommendation of all juvenile poems.
