Présentation de l'éditeur

Temporary Criticism THE Times, without malignity Or sharpeningof ambitious swords, States well and simply: Mr. C. Has a certain command of words Which gives his verses dignity, But theres a sense of abstraction A bout them (bless us! some one says. He switty, like Johannes Donne) Which hinders their effectiveness. (T is clear that wit wont help him on.) Now for C. sturn: within his rhymes. Reader, just as within a page Othe Sibyl sbook, yes, in his rhymes You ll something find beyond this age, And many things beyond the Times.
