Fun And Earnest: Or Rhymes With Reason is a book of poetry written by Darcy Wentworth Thompson and published in 1865. The collection is divided into two parts, the first being a lighthearted collection of humorous and playful poems, while the second is more serious and contemplative.The poems in the first part of the book range in topic from love and friendship to nature and animals. They are written in a witty and clever style, often using puns and wordplay to create a playful tone. The second part of the book contains more thoughtful and introspective poems, exploring themes such as mortality, religion, and the meaning of life.Throughout the collection, Thompson's writing is characterized by his use of rhyme and meter, as well as his skillful use of language and imagery. His poetry is both accessible and thought-provoking, appealing to a wide range of readers.Overall, Fun And Earnest: Or Rhymes With Reason is a charming and engaging collection of poetry that showcases Thompson's talent as a writer and his ability to capture both the joys and challenges of life through verse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
