Sonnets1 and other Poems, by William Lloyd
Garrison2. Boston. 1843. pp. 96.
Mr. Garrison has won his palms in quite other fields than those of the
lyric3 muse4, and he is far more likely to be the subject than the author of good poems. He is rich enough in the earnestness and the success of his character to be patient with the very rapid
withering5 of the
poetic6 garlands he has snatched in passing. Yet though this volume contains little poetry, both the subjects and the sentiments will everywhere command respect. That piece in the volume, which pleased us most, was the address to his first-born child.
