Hwomely Rhymes: A Second Collection Of Poems In The Dorset Dialect (1859) is a book of poetry written by William Barnes. The poems are written in the Dorset dialect, a regional dialect spoken in the southwest of England. This collection is a follow-up to Barnes' earlier work, Poems of Rural Life in the Dorset Dialect. The poems in Hwomely Rhymes explore the daily life and experiences of people living in rural Dorset during the 19th century. They cover a range of topics, including farming, nature, love, and religion. The language used in the poems is unique and distinctive, with many words and phrases that are specific to the Dorset dialect. Barnes was a skilled poet and his work was highly regarded during his lifetime. He was known for his ability to capture the essence of rural life and the natural world in his writing. His use of the Dorset dialect adds a layer of authenticity and charm to his work, making it a valuable record of a regional language and culture. Overall, Hwomely Rhymes: A Second Collection Of Poems In The Dorset Dialect (1859) is a fascinating and enjoyable read for anyone interested in poetry, regional dialects, or the history of rural life in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
