Patchwork Poems: And Antediluvian Rhymes is a collection of poems written by Jane Vaughan Pinkney and published in 1855. The title of the book suggests that it is a collection of various poems and rhymes put together like a patchwork quilt. The poems in this book are a mix of serious and humorous topics, with some focusing on love and nature, while others explore religious themes. The book’s title also suggests that some of the poems may be old or ancient, and indeed, there are several rhymes that draw on biblical stories and characters from the Old Testament. The use of the word ''antediluvian'' in the title refers to the time period before the biblical flood, and some of the poems in the book explore this ancient era. Overall, Patchwork Poems: And Antediluvian Rhymes is a unique collection of poetry that blends different themes and styles. It provides a glimpse into the literary world of the mid-19th century and showcases the talent of Jane Vaughan Pinkney as a poet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
