Abercrombie, Lascelles. Interludes and

poems.

"A momentary gust

Of power, a swift dismay

Putting the infinite quiet to disarray,

A thing like anger or outbreaking lust,

A zeal immeasurably sent —

So Law came and went,

And smote into a bright astonishment
Of stars the season of eternity,

And grazed the darkness into glowing lanes."

Aiken, Conrad. Earth triumphant. Narrative poems, similar to some of Masefield's. Mr. Aiken, however, shows decided originality, both in his subject matter and in his treatment.

Baring, Maurice. Collected poems. "I, too, have travelled in the unknown land, And anchored by the unfrequented shore; I. too, have heard the Stygian waters roar, And seen the foam of Lethe kiss the sand."

Barker, Elsa. The frozen grail, and

other poems.

"From my still cottage, off the road,
I see the noisy world go by,

Forever driven by the goad,
Forever bending to the load,
Unmindful of the sky.'

Benét, William Rose. Merchants from Cathay.

"Takes its title from a gay ballad - a tale of two strange merchants who rode into town on paunchy beasts with golden hooves. They brought sacks of magic merchandise, and they sang a carol in praise of the Grand Cham, the king of all the kings across the sea."

The falconer of God.

"Far up in the quarry

I hewed a stone for pure delight

Far up in the quarry that's gashed in the mountainside.

I chipped the stone and the flashes flew white.

I thought a wonder dazzling bright,

I caught my dream in a grasp of might

And wrought it wild with pride."

That this was the hour of knowing,
And the night and the woods and you
Were one together, and I should find
Soon in the silence the hidden key

Of all that had hurt and puzzled me —
Why you were you, and the night was kind,
And the woods were part of the heart of me.'

Bynner, Witter. An ode to Harvard and other poems.

"'Twas such a saucy little brook
And had so beckoning a look,

And had a wink so sly,

That oft I follow'd where it led,

Caught by its roguish eye,

Caught by the dimpling laugh that sped

Ever ahead, ever ahead,

Amid the grasses growing;

And O the wind was blowing.

And O the wind was high!"

Play, fiddler, play!

A wedding should be blithe and gay!

And in the wood the violins are calling." Carman, Bliss. Echoes from Vagabondia. "A volume of new lyrical poems like those which gave the author fame as the joint contributor with Richard Hovey to 'Songs from Vagabondia." "

"What matter if the sun be lost?

What matter though the sky be gray?
There's joy enough about the house,

For Daffodil comes home to-day.
There's news of swallows on the air,

There's word of April on the way,
They're calling flowers within the street,
And Daffodil comes home to-day."

Carpenter, Rhys. The Sun-Thief and other poems.

"Competent academic verse on classical models, including a new version of the Prometheus legend." - W. S. Braithwaite.

"And there he lay, a thing of dread,
A loathsome thing for man and beast;
None put a stone beneath his head,

Or wet his lips, or rubbed his wrist,
And none drew near to help or cheer
Save a policeman and a priest."

Hagedorn, Hermann. A troop of the guard, and other poems.

"The portals are open, the white road leads

Through thicket and garden, o'er stone and sod. On, up! Boot and saddle! Give spurs to your steeds!

There's a city beleaguered that cries for men's deeds, For the faith that is strength and the love that is God!

On through the dawning! Humanity calls!
Life's not a dream in the clover!
On to the walls, on to the walls,
On to the walls, and over!"

Poems and ballads.

Kipling, Rudyard. Collected verse.

Lindsay, Nicholas Vachel. General William Booth enters into Heaven.

"Mr. Lindsay's remarkable poem, with its picture of General Booth entering heaven to an accompaniment of drums, banjos, tambourines, and a Salvation army refrain, is used here as an introductory poem.' "The banjos rattled and the tambourines Jing-jing-jingled in the hands of Queens."

The Congo, and other poems. "The explicitly poetical stage directions which accompany these poems 'to be read aloud or chanted,' initiate the reader at once into the art, and rather spoil him for the tame business of reading."

-"The New Republic." Lowell, Amy. Sword blades and poppy seed.

"I am Cornelius Kurler, and my fame

Is better known on distant oceans than on land.
My ship has tasted water in strange seas,

And bartered goods at still unchartered isles.
She's oft coquetted with a tropic breeze,

And sheered off hurricanes with jaunty
smiles."

Mackaye, Percy. Uriel, and other poems. "Silent, and one by one,

Southward the forms turned back,

But one, who walked alone,

Held still his starry track,

Till the vast sun circled the ocean's sill,
And the luring star in the void stood still,
And the mind of man had wrought his will.'
The present hour.

"A man went down to Panama

Where many a man had died
To slit the sliding mountains
And lift the eternal tide:

A man stood up in Panama,

And the mountains stood aside."

Markham, Edwin. Shoes of happiness.

Lincoln, and other poems.

Masefield, John. The everlasting mercy and The widow in the Bye street.

The story of the round-house. Philip the King, and other poems. Meynell, Alice. Poems.

"An intense regard for quality rather than any difficulties with the Muse, makes this volume of collected poems, written over a period of twenty years, slender, and its contents precious... Delicacy of diction and strength of thought unite in an intense appeal which has not one line of preaching.' "Athenaeum.'

Monroe, Harriet. You and I.
Lyrics by the editor of "Poetry: a magazine of

verse.

"Steel hulls impenetrable

To the waves that tease and pull, Bright engines that answer the beat Of their foam-slippered dancing feet, Hot fires that shudder and drive, Close-tended, untiring, sure—”

Moore, T. Sturge. The sea is kind.

"The formal beauty of Mr. Moore's verse is based upon close rhythmic and sound harmonies. It is hardly possible that he will be called upon to bear the burden of popularity, but his rare qualities will continue inevitably to attract the lover of poetry." A. C. Henderson in "The Dial." Neihardt, John G. A bundle of myrrh. The stranger at the gate. "Treader of the blue steeps and the hollows under! Day-Flinger, Hope-Singer, crowned with awful hair!

Battle lord with burning sword to cleave the gloom asunder!

Plunger through the eyries of the eagles of the Thunder!

Stroller up the flame-arched air!"

Newbolt, Henry. Poems, new and old. "Splinters were flying above, below,

When Nelson sailed the sound:
'Mark you, I wouldn't be elsewhere now,'
Said he, 'for a thousand pound!'
The Admiral's signal bade him fly,

But he wickedly wagged his head,
He clapped the glass to his sightless eye
And I'm damned if I see it,' he said."
Norton, Grace Fallow. The sister of the
wind.

"Dusk came out of the wood and found the croft where I lay.

Lips as bright as the morning and eyes like the stars of night,

I dreamed of the morn of the morrow and midnight's dark delight. Dusk covered my heart, all with her sleeve of gray."

Noyes, Alfred. The wine press.

Collected poems. 2 vols.

Peabody, Josephine Preston. Singing

man.

"Verse, embodying Miss Peabody's passionate protest against existing social conditions. The interspersed lyrics are more personal in tone and have great beauty."

Phillips, Stephen. The new Inferno.

"Of an inferno which every man creates for himself, of the torment in which he must exist till hate in him and hate for him have ceased, these nine cantos sing."

New poems.

"And as two trees at midnight, when the breeze
Comes over them, now to each other bend,
And now withdraw: so mournfully these two
Still drooped together and still drew apart.
Then like one dead her ladies bore away
The heavy queen; and Launcelot went out
And through a forest, weeping, rode all night."
Pound, Ezra. Provença.

"There is not a dull line. There are many forcible ones, many of extraordinary beauty, and a few of that curious Keatsian magic, that, if not felt at once by the reader, can be neither explained nor communicated."

Rice, Cale Young. Many gods.

"The summer has come,

The summer has gone,

And the maple leaves lift fairy hands
That ripple upon the winds of dawn

Where the dim pagoda stands.

They ripple and beckon yearningly
To their sister fairies over the sea,

Robinson, Edwin Arlington. The town down the river.

The children of the night.

"Mr. Robinson's poems are, for the most part, delineations of the soul etched into portraits of psy

Scollard, Clinton. Poems.

"Here's to the halcyon weather,

And the wild, unfettered will,

The crickets chirring, the west wind stirring
The hemlocks on the hill!

Here's to the faring foot, and here's to the
dreaming eye!

And here's to the heart that will not be still Under the open sky!"

Stephens, James. Hill of vision. "Song! glad indeed I am that we have met,

Too long, my sister, you have stayed from me; Almost, I fancied, that you could forget

Those binding promises, that you would be Under the slender interlacing boughs

Waiting for me."

The author has been unusually successful in the use of vers libre.

"Remote, in some dim room,

On this dark April morning, soft with rain,

I hear her pensive touch

Fall aimless on the keys,

And stop, and play again."

Symons, Arthur. Knave of hearts.

"When you read the work of Arthur Symons, it is well to remember that he is a Cornishman, for this fact will explain, in a measure, the quality in his poetry that differentiates it from the general type of British literary artistry." -"Review of Reviews."

Hanson. The quiet

Towne, Charles singer, and other poems.

"But does the skylark, singing sweet and clear, Beg the cold world to hear?

Rather, he sings for very rapture of singing, At dawn, or in the blue, mild Summer noon, Knowing that, late or soon,

His wealth of beauty, and his high notes, ringing Above the earth, will make some heart rejoice."

Tynan, Katharine. Irish poems.

"There's a mist that's over Ireland where the blackbird calls,

And when you come it's risin' and when you go it falls.

It's made of green and silver and the rain and dew, And the finest sun is over it you ever knew."

Untermeyer, Louis. Challenge. "The winds, like a pack of hounds,

Snap at my dragging heels

With sudden leapings and playful bounds
They urge me out to the greener grounds
Where the butterfly sinks and the swallow
reels

Giddy with Spring, with its smells and sounds—
And I go...

Van Dyke, Henry. Poems.

Grand canyon.

Viereck, George Sylvester. The candle and the flame.

"If one will get into the book, and be willing to overlook the frequent decadent note...he will find some genuinely fine poetry here, and all the more regret the excesses and foolishnesses. Much may be forgiven a writer who gives us "The Plaint of Eve.'" Richard Burton in "The Bellman."

Watson, William. Poems.

The muse in exile.

"April, April,

Laugh thy girlish laughter;
Then, the moment after,
Weep thy girlish tears!
April, that mine ears

Like a lover greetest,

If I tell thee, sweetest,
All my hopes and fears,
April, April,

Laugh thy golden laughter,
But the moment after,
Weep thy golden tears!"
Wharton, Edith.

and other verse.

Artemis to Actæ on,

"Strange hour, is this thy waning face that leans Out of mid-heaven and makes my soul its glass? What victory is imaged there? What means

Thy tarrying smile? Oh, veil thy lips and pass." Wheelock, John Hall. The beloved ad

venture.

"Love me for nothing Time may take away, But for my very self that must endure, Fixed as the stars along the eternal way, Strong for your strength, and for your love's sake pure.'

Wilkinson, Florence. (Evans.) The ride home.

"The spindling lamps of autumn lit the wood;
All tranced it stood,

Ripples of green in spring-like under-places,
Hill-blue for wonder-spaces.

Thin curly leaves, they floated on the stream
In a soft dream,

Dreaming themselves a golden argosy,
Or pirate-ships that flee."

Yeats, William Butler. Poetical works.

The green helmet, and other poems.
