Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gems of the Modern Poets With scarcely an exception, the Editor has been favoured by the living Poets with memoranda for his brief biographies; and, with most of them, he has the honour to be personally acquainted. As regards facts, therefore, he has gone upon sure ground; and, as it was his duty to introduce into the volume only such as have achieved and merited fame, he trusts that his criticisms will be neither displeasing to them, nor unsatisfactory to the Public.
