Excerpt from Little Masterpieces of English Poetry, Vol. 2: By British and American Authors, Dyls and Stories in Verse This volume of Little Masterpieces of English Poetry contains idyls and stories in verse. It covers a region lying between the ballad, which is almost, if not altogether, objective and imper sonal, and the descriptive and reflective lyric, in which the personal thought and feeling of the poet is the main element. The poems in this volume are marked by a blending of the two elements. They are narratives which have in them some thing oi the reflective and descriptive element. Of course this must not be taken as a hard and fast classification, nor are the divisions within the volume to be so regarded. Many of the poems here have aspects and relations which connect them with the poems in other groups. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
