Excerpt from Poems of Henry Timrod: With a Memoir and Portrait The name and writings of Henry Timrod have been long known and appreciated at the South. Nor are they wholly unknown at the North. I have before me a letter from the Quaker poet, Whittier, in which he warmly commends the poems of Timrod he had seen, while expressing a regret for his early death. Frequently, in his critical essays, Richard Henry Stoddard has referred to Timrod, as in his opinion the ablest poet the South had yet produced - a verdict fully sustained by some other (Northern) writers of high position, to whose notice the poems had been brought. These facts may prove, in some sort, an introduction to the present volume, so far as the Northern public is concerned. They may win for it a candid examination, all that is necessary, doubtless, for its success. Meanwhile, I purpose to give a sketch of Timrod's life, which, though comparatively brief, and to an exceptional degree uneventful, is still of interest, as throwing much light upon the character of his verses, and the development of his genius.
