DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Neghborly Poems and Dialect Sketches I have read it over and over again in the paper you sent, and I would like to have about three more ef you can spare the same and state by mail what they will come at. All nature was in tune day before yisterday when your paper come to hand. It had ben a-raining hard fer some days, but that morning opened up as clear as a whissel. No clouds was in the sky, and the air was hammy with the warm sunshine and the wet smell of the earth and the locus blossoms and the owrs and pennyroil and boneset. I got up, the first one about the place, and went forth to the plesant fields. I fed the stock with lavish hand and wortered them in merry glee, they was no bird in all the land no happier than me. I have jest wrote a verse of poetry in this letter; see ef you can find it. I also send you a whole poem which was wrote off the very day your paper come. I started it in the morning I have so feebly tride to pictur' to you and wound her up by subvertime, besides doin' a fare day's work around the place.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Hoosier Book: Containing Poems in Dialect So it came about that, at the proper time, he suggested and even urged a companion volume, to contain only dialect verse, and with that spontaneous genius for nomenclature which was so remarkably his, instantly christened the new collection: The Hoosier Book - The Hoosier Book of Riley Verse. This was but a short time after his return to Indianapolis from a winter in the South, and only a few months before he departed on that last great journey to the land where it is always afternoon. His never imposed but always unerring taste, his gentle criticism, his tactful suggestions, all so helpful in the prep aration of The Lockerbie Book, have been wanting in the selection of poems for this volume, but the poems them: selves, every line, every word, had the final touch of his careful hand.
