Book Description
The Romanticism that emerged after the American and French revolutions of 1776 and 1789 represented a new flowering of the imagination and the spirit, and a celebration of the soul of humanity with its capacity for love. This extraordinary collection sets the acknowledged genius of poems such as Blake's 'Tyger', Coleridge's 'Khubla Khan' and Shelley's 'Ozymandias' alongside verse from less familiar figures and women poets such as Charlotte Smith and Mary Robinson. We also see familiar poets in an unaccustomed light, as Blake, Wordsworth and Shelley demonstrate their comic skills, while Coleridge, Keats and Clare explore the Gothic and surreal.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Classic Poets: Their Lives and Their Times, With the Epics Epitomised Or of the literature of the period to which the Epic belonged, this being followed by an epitome of the Epic itself, interspersed with selected passages. It has been written in the hope that a book of this kind would prove a novelty, and find favourable reception in these days of popular literature, when frequent references are made to little known scenes and characters in the old poems, and that numerous readers might think it well to have their salient points brought before them in this way, who would not care, or be willing to give the time, to peruse the Epics in their entirety. A complete and intimate knowledge of these could only be obtained with little. Less than the labour of years, and with those who are.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Collected Poems of Rupert Brooke The poet loves his new-found element. He clings to mortality; to life, not thought; or, as he puts it, to the concrete, - let the abstract go pack! There's little comfort in the Wise, he ends. But in the unfolding of his precocious spirit, the literary control comes upper most; his boat, finding its keel, swings to the helm of mind. How should it be otherwise for a youth well-born, well-bred, in college air? Intellectual primacy showed itself to him in many wandering loves, fine lover that he Ewas; but in the end he was an intellectual lover, and the magnet seems to have been especially powerful in the ghosts of the men of wit, Donne, Marvell erudite lords of language, poets in another world than ours, a less ample ether, a less divine air, our fathers thought, but poets of eternity A quintessential drop of intel lect is apt to be in poetic blood. How Platonism fasci nates the poets, like a shining bait! Rupert Brooke will have none of it; but at a turn of the verse he is back at it.

Book Description
Excerpt from Quiet Waters Blanche Shoemaker Wagstaff does not aspire to the epic theme and the grand manner. She es says the heart warm human themes, themes that appeal, perhaps, to a wider audience. I notice that some of the poems are in the traditional form. Others are in the free form that the precisionists would take to be only the preliminary sketches of poems. But I am willing to let a poet bring her beauty in the loose structure of the meadow larks nest as well as in the orderly pack of the orioles pocket. All I ask is that the poet shall have a singing bird in any nest she brings. Blanche Wagstaff does not ride against life with leveled lance, crying a bitter challenge to the scheme of things: she comes with a wistful questioning of existence, or with quiet acceptance of the decrees of Fate. So we frequently find her at home in her lyric garden, recording the moods of the hour, telling of sight and sound and fragrance and flight of wing. She feels - "A kinship with the force of earth, the thrill That comes with Nature's sweetest intimacy, Some premonition of Eternity."

Book Description
Excerpt from Beside Lake Beautiful Summers, and if I set a - talking and grow garrulous, set it down not to age, but to love; for love and age are alike garrulous. Good things bear talk ing of, and that right often. Did not Leonardo so frequently paint a smile upon the lips of those he loved to celebrate, as that this shadow of laughter has passed into the sayings of the world as the smile of Leonardo? Life's mercies will bear frequent celebration. There Should be celebrated natal days for the Visions and loveliness and beav emly Visitations of our hearts. Pack the 11calendar full of birthdays of holy things, and so make, by and by, each day an anniversary. I remember, with laughter, the rainy night on which, long ago, I began to read The Pairie Queene, and a windy day when, blown by the untir ing wind, I found upon the prairies Corn well's poem, The Whippoorwill; and the afternoon when for the first time I lifted mine eyes unto the hills and saw the mountains build battlements of snow toward the sun; and the bewildering day when I first saw the pine trees in the Sierras and heard their haunting psalm Ody. Why, certes, these are birthdays to me, and shall be evermore; and if I were to take a calendar (as would be wiser than most I do) and inscribe thereon some glad event of soul, some revela tional mood, some sacrament in religion or love or service or discovery of book or herohood Where least I thought to find one, or poem that tuned the heart to new, sad music, or landscape beautiful with light or dusk or moonlight or caress of water and the vista Of backward mov 12ing seas - if I were to write over against each date some gladness it had brought into my life, each day in the year long reckoning would be starred with some radiant memory. Such calendar is well worth anybody's making, inasmuch as it would give new data for thankfulness. How ever, let this pass. I speak now Of the lake With tilt of wave and music of it, of shore and dune and pine and mysti fying lights upon the sunset waters and the windings Of the river to meet the waiting am plitude of horizonless waves. God's perpetuated mercy is that beauty is customary; but in some places beauties do as stars do in certain spaces of the Skies - they cluster. Be side Lake Beautiful is such a spot.
