The Maniacs Confession A Fragment Of A Tale In Verse Observations On American Literature PDF Download

Excerpt from The Maniac's Confession: A Fragment of a Tale The Exile's Return, the Author's first production, having been passed "sub silentio" by the critics, for reasons best known among themselves, he cannot be supposed again to publish, in consequence of any literary patronage, which has been extended him, but simply, because he prefers a clear type to an obscure manuscript. The numberless typographical errors to be met with in the above-mentioned Poem, together with the desire the Author feels of expunging certain lines, very defective, and of substituting others in their place, will induce him, in justice to his own feelings, to republish it some time hence; whether these proposed amendments may prove for the better, it will not be for the Author to determine.
