Excerpt from Selected PoemsLady Margaret Sackville is the best In my opinion of our English poetesses, at least of the younger generation. Certainly she is among the most interesting. She has written verse since she was six years old, and it has always been good verse. Though misled for a while into the blind alley of blank verse, the common snare of young and ambitious writers of a dozen years ago, she has always emerged into the daylight of sound rhyme, metre and melody, the three essentials in our English tradition, for blank verse, though it may be poetry, is not really verse at all, even in master hands, say, rather a dignified kind of prose pompous in recitation and for common reading, dull.It is difficult to forecast what the future of English poetry will be.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
