by Patrick Brontë (Author)
"Cottage Poems" is a collection of moral verses by Patrick Bront . Patrick Bront (1777 - 1861) was an Irish priest and author, as well as the father of the world-renowned Bront sisters. He would eventually outlive his wife by some forty years, and, tragically, all of their children as well. This wonderful collection will appeal to poetry lovers and is not to be missed by fans of the famous Bront literary family. Contents include: "Haworth", "The Happy Cottagers", "The Rainbow", "Winter-Night Meditations", "Verses Sent To A Lady On Her Birthday", "The Irish Cabin", "To The Rev. J. Gilpin, On His Improved Edition Of The Pilgrim's Progress", "The Cottage Maid", "The Spider And The Fly", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this classic volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition for the enjoyment of readers now and for years to come.
