ent its Christian tone To the savage air; no social smoke Curled over woods of snow-hung oak. In a prose paper by him, moreover, The Fish I Didn't catch, published originally in the Little Pilgrim, in Philadelphia, in 1843, there is a sketch of the home of his youth, as suggestive of a rustic boyhood as if it had been made in Scotland.

Out of all these poems written before 1829, Whittier himself preserved, in the collected edition of his works, only eight, and these in an appendix, in discouragingly small type, as if offering very little encouragement to the reader.
