DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Yale Book of American Verse A statement of the sort just made is based, in truth, not only upon the assumption that the editor's acquaintance with the poetical literature of our race is absolutely complete, but that his judgment of the comparative excellence of the pieces composing it is absolutely perfect. No one would be willing to con cede the latter qualification and few the former. Every collection of poems must inevitably reflect to a great extent the limitation of the compiler's knowl edge. Many pieces which he would have been glad to include, had he been aware of their existence, are likely to have escaped his observation. But were there no lack of knowledge, the choice he makes will be certain to reflect the nature of his literary sym pathics, and even more the limitations of his literary taste; at all events its distinctive character. There are certain poems which it is always easy to select. Upon them the consent of the ages has already set the stamp of approval. Against this verdict of suc cessive generations there may be protest upon the part of the individual; but from it there can be no valid appeal.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Book of Yale Review Verse It might be interesting to speculate as to what keen words of appraisal Dr. Johnson would have said of this vol ume; as to what different inflection Herrick would have put upon the themes of its lyrics; whether Pope would have discovered a philosophy of life underlying this poetry of a period, as we do so readily in the work of his Augustans; what Chaucer would have thought of the temporal humanity that must pervade even the least per sonal of this verse. All this could be speculation only. For our generation, at least, there is between these covers a brief but moving picture of American and English minds and hearts in the years that began the war and felt its progress, justifying such an anthology, and adding another interest certainly to those merits of good verse that are not dependent upon time or place.
