Description
William D. Howells published this volume of poems in Boston in 1886, with Ticknor and Company, under a copyright of 1873 and 1885. The University Press of John Wilson and Son at Cambridge printed it. The contents run from The Pilot's Story, Forlorn, and Pleasure-Pain to In August, The Empty House, and Bubbles. Lost Beliefs, Louis Lebeau's Conversion, and Caprice follow, with Sweet Clover and The Royal Portraits.
The Faithful of the Gonzaga, The First Cricket, and The Mulberries lead to By the Sea, Saint Christopher, and an elegy on John Butler Howells. Thanksgiving, A Springtime, and The Bobolinks are Singing add seasonal notes, with The Battle in the Clouds, The Two Wives, and The Song the Oriole Sings. Pordenone and The Long Days close a full, varied book of Howells's verse.
