Early Rising by John Godfrey Saxe (1816 - 1887)
LibriVox volunteers bring you 15 recordings of Early Rising by John Godfrey Saxe. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for December 31, 2010.
The words “dutiful” and “pious” never applied to the aspiring satirist. Bored by his legal work, Saxe began publishing poems for The Knickerbocker, of which “The Rhyme of the Rail” is his most famous early work. He soon caught the attention of the prominent Boston publishing house, Ticknor and Fields. Though he received no royalties for his first volume, it ran to ten reprintings and eventually outsold works by Hawthorne and Tennyson.
