Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from King Erik Give any one of our contemporary poets a legendary or historical subject as the basis of a drama, and while he will perhaps follow with conscientious accuracy in the path of his legend or history, he will display not only an ignor ance of the first requirements of the stage, but, very likely, an incapacity to develop at all a story by means of metrical dialogue. The movement of his verse will be entirely lyrical, most likely; or else artificially rugged, like that of Queen Mary, or Mr. Browning's dramas. Poetic imagery will be sought for, to the ruin of dramatic truth. Fancy, and what the poet cherishes most of all, his private thoughts upon things in general, will clog his imagination till its wings will droop over-weighted, like the lost angel's pinions in the story, sunk hell-ward by the very gems of Arden with which he had been endowed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from King Erik To Robert Browning. As young Greek athletes hung their votive strigils Within the temples of the Powers above; As lovers gave the lamp that lit their vigils Through sleepless hours of love; So I this lyric symbol of my labour, This antique light that led my dreams so long, This battered hull of a barbaric tabor, Beaten to runic song, Bear to that shrine where your dear presence lingers Where stands your Muse's statue white as snow; I take my poor gift in my trembling fingers, And hang it there and go. This very day one hundred years are over Since Landor's godlike spirit came to earth: Surely the winter air laughed like a lover, The hour that gave him birth.
