Download or read book A Book of Cambridge Verse Classic Reprint written by Ernest Edward Kellett and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 excerpt: Excerpt from Sports Extra: Classics of Sports Reporting Not all the selections belong in the realm of pure literature. The boys had no time to compose a piece for the ages: it is, indeed, a wonder that the syntax IS relatively unscrambled and the English is reasonably good. The majority of these stories was written in a huge, outdoor psychopathic ward with anywhere from 30 to inmates screaming insanely and the copy desk demanding a lead for the next edition, and damn' quick, too. Much of the copy was fed in short takes, or paragraphs, to telegraph instruments clattering insistently and it was written in the white heat of excitement on eighteen crowded, precarious inches of wooden benches and tables under frightful conditions - ram, cold, heat and the critical attention of insects that fly or crawl or have the power of speech.
