PREFATORY NOTE

By the kind courtesy of Messrs. D. Lothrop Company, I am permitted toreprint in this collection seven sonnets from my volume entitled ‘InDivers Tones.’ This is done to complete the series of sonnets dealingwith aspects of common outdoor life. The sonnets reprinted are ‘TheSower,’ ‘The Potato Harvest,’ ‘Tides,’ ‘In September,’ ‘Dark,’ ‘Rain,’and ‘Mist.’ The Ode for the Centenary of Shelley’s Birth was firstpublished by the Williamson Book Company, of Toronto, in December 1892,in a limited edition of two hundred copies.
