Like living things gleamed; 'til the light faintly thrown,
Died far off in the distance away..."
- from Poems (22.Uncle Enoch) by Elizabeth Fawcett Townsend
The title page notes that the book includes "Poems by the late Elizabeth Fawcett Townsend, Printed at the Request of Personal Friends". The printing was in 1862, a few months after the author's death, according to the lovely and personal preface.
