By Henry Headley

Book Overview

Fugitive Pieces is a book written by Henry Headley in 1785. It is a collection of poems that explores various themes such as love, nature, and the human condition. The title of the book is a reference to the idea that each poem is a ""fugitive piece"" that has been rescued from obscurity and brought to light. The poems are written in a variety of styles, including sonnets, odes, and ballads, and they showcase Headley's skill as a poet. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing poems that are more personal and introspective, while the second part contains more political and social commentary. Overall, Fugitive Pieces is a beautiful and thought-provoking collection of poetry that is sure to delight readers who appreciate the art of verse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
