Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sacred Songs, Sonnets, and Miscellaneous Poems We are no longer satisfied with the novel, with the song, or with the play, that used to delight our forefathers. Nothing so Simple and innocent would now content us. Even our religion has suffered a change. The stern mo rality and unbending creeds of other days have become pliant and yielding, while compromise and emasculated beliefs have taken their place. The Old doctrines familiar to the bye - gone pul pit now offend us, though we are not particular if the preacher resorts to irreverence and slang On the contrary, we rather encourage him in this propensity.
