Excerpt from Songs of a Fool They call me a Fool. And little I know; Neither whence I came, nor whither I go; Neither what I am, nor may hope to be, When time is lost in eternity. And yet - so long as I dwell upon earth, There shall not be lacking the sounds of mirth; For wherever I go comes a gaping crowd, And whatever I do there is laughter loud; Laughter that half conceals a sneer, Though sometimes I fancy it covers a tear. But little care I. For pity or scorn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Under a Fool's Cap: Songs IS day was done, and the sands had run Through the measuring glass so long, That now there was left to his setting sun, But a pipe, and a bowl, and a song.

Excerpt from Nonsense Songs In issuing this new edition of the "Nonsense Songs" the Publishers desire to say that, feeling Mr. Lear had, contrary to his usual custom, presented these songs to the public illustrated in the slightest manner only, they have, with the assistance of Mr. L. Leslie Brooke, endeavoured to create a wider interest in verses which for so many years have given unwonted pleasure to thousands of readers. A generation has already passed since these songs were penned, but their humour is of the kind that does not evaporate after a few years, and they are as fresh to-day as when first published. In the "Introduction," written by him for the Ninth Edition of "Nonsense Songs and Stories," Sir Edward Strachey asks, "What is Nonsense?" and after declaring that "Nonsense... has shown itself to be a true work of the imagination, a child of genius, and its writing one of the fine arts," he goes on to say that - "From the days when Aristotle Investigated the philosophy of laughter, and Aristophanes gave laughter its fullest - I might say its maddest - expression on the stage at Athens, down to this week's issue of Punch, Nonsense has asserted and made good its claim to a place among the Arts. It has indeed pressed each of them in turn into its service. Nonsense has found the highest expression of itself in music, painting, sculpture, and every form of poetry and prose.

Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Excerpt from Whistle-Binkie or the Piper of the Party, Vol. 1: Being a Collection of Songs for the Social Circle In taking farewell, the publisher cannot refrain from wishing that this highly-gifted child of song may long be spared to the public. He and his publisher, greatly his senior in years, are only left to cherish the memory of those whose Lyres lie silent now and sad. He who gave publicity to this work has followed the remains of many of these minstrels to The dusty house of Death, and felt the wheel working at life's cistern, troubled when that hollow booming key-note of death was struck, as the soil fell on the casing which contained the unconscious remains of those whom he loved, reflecting that he soon, too, must return to mix with kindred dust.

Excerpt from Three Books of Song A Cold, uninterrupted rain, That washed each southern window-pane, And made a river of the road; A sea of mist that overflowed The house, the barns, the gilded vane, And drowned the upland and the plain, Through which the oak-trees, broad and high, Like phantom ships went drifting by; And, hidden behind a watery screen, The sun unseen, or only seen As a faint pallor in the sky; - Thus cold and colorless and gray, The morn of that autumnal day, As if reluctant to begin.
