The Works of Lord Byron. Vol. 3 by George Gordon Byron Byron INTRODUCTION TO THE OCCASIONAL PIECES(POEMS 1809-1813; POEMS 1814-1816). The Poems afterwards entitled "Occasional Pieces," which were included in the several editions of the Collected Works issued by Murray, 1819-1831, numbered fifty-seven in all. They may be described as the aggregate of the shorter poems written between the years 1809-1818, which the author thought worthy of a permanent place among his poetical works. Of these the first twenty-nine appeared in successive editions of Childe Harold (Cantos I., II.) viz. fourteen in the first edition, twenty in the second, and twenty-nine in the seventh edition, while the thirtieth, the Ode on the Death of Sir Peter Parker, was originally attached to Hebrew Melodies. The remaining twenty-seven pieces consist of six poems first published in the Second Edition of the Corsair, 1814; eleven which formed the collection entitled "Poems," 1816; six which were appended to the Prisoner of Chillon, December, 1816; the Very Mournful Ballad, and the Sonnet by Vittorelli, which accompanied the Fourth Canto of Childe Harold, 1818; the Sketch, first included by Murray in his edition of 1819; and the Ode to Venice, which appeared in the same volume as Mazeppa. Thus matters stood till 1831, when seventy new poems (sixty had been published by Moore, in Letters and Journals, 1830, six were republished from Hobhouse's Imitations and Translations, 1809, and four derived from other sources) were included in a sixth volume of the Collected Works. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.

Excerpt from Works of Lord Byron, Vol. 4 In my own I have given you the rise, program, de cline, and fall, of my recent malady. It is gone to the devil: I won't pay him so had a compliment as to say it. Me from him he is too much ofa gentle man. It was nothing but. A slow fever, which quick emed its pace towards the end of its journey. I had been bored with it some weeks with nocturnal burnings and morning perspiration but I am quite well again, which I attribute to having had neither n 61 5 s e nor doctor thereof.

Excerpt from The Works of Lord Byron, Vol. 4 of 6 The conspiracy of the Doge Marino Faliero is one of the most remarkable events in the annals of the most singular government, city, and people of modern history. It occurred in the year 1355. E very thing about Venice is, or was, extraordinary-her aspect is like a dream, and her history is like a romance. The story of this Doge is to be found in all her Chronicles, and particularly detailed in the "Lives of the Doges," by Marin Sanuto, which is given in the Appendix. It is simply and clearly related, and is perhaps more dramatic in itself than any scenes which can be founded upon the subject. Marino Faliero appears to have been a man of talents and of courage. I find him commander in chief of the land forces at the siege of Zara, where he beat the King of Hungary and his army of 80,000 men, killing 8000 men, and keeping the besieged at the same time in check; an exploit to which I know none similar in history, except that of Caesar at Alesia, and of Prince Eugene at Belgrade. He was afterwards commander of the fleet in the same war. He took Capo d'lstria. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

You will remark that the unities are' all strictly preserved. The scene passes in the same hall al ways: the time, a summer's night, about nine hours or less; though it begins before sunset, and ends after sunrise. It is not for the stage, any more than the other was intended for it; and I shall take bet ter care this time that they do n't get hold on 't.

Excerpt from The Works of the Rt. Hon. Lord Byron, Vol. 4 of 8 The reader will please to bear in mind (what few choose to recollect) that there is no allusion to a future state in any of the books of Moses, nor indeed in the Old Testament. For a reason for this extraordinary omission he may consult War burton's Divine Legation; whether satisfactory or not, no better has yet been assigned. I have therefore supposed it new to Cain, without, I hope, any perversion of Holy Writ. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
