Excerpt from Lord Curzon's Farewell to India: Being Speeches Delivered as Viceroy and Governor-General of India, During Sept.-Nov. 1905 To the gifted author of this poem. The venerable Dr. William Alexander, Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of all Ireland, my sincere thanks are due for the great kindness with which he readily acceded to my request to publish his poem here. His Grace, who is now in his eighty-third year, is very widely known as one of the best of our living sacred poets, and I am sensible of the obligation he has conferred on me by allowing his poem to appear in this volume, whose interest is much enhanced thereby..
