Excerpt from The Literary Remains of John G. C. Brainard: With a Sketch of His Life
There is a feeling of reverence associated with our reminiscences of departed worth and genius. It is too holy and deep for outward manifestation. It hov ers closely around the heart, sweeping in secret the fine and hidden chords of our better sympathies. In contemplating the character of the subject of this sketch, I feel in no ordinary degree, the peculiar deli cacy of the task Iahave undertaken. It is like lifting the shroud from the still face of the dead, that the living may admire its yet lingering loveliness. I al most feel as if I were writing in the presence of the disembodied spirit of the departed - as if the eye of his modest and unpretending genius were following the pen, which traces his brief history.
