Présentation de l'éditeur

One day my friend. Lieutenant Edward E. Piatt, saw The Song of Life, which I had bound into a little book, lying on my desk and asked me to let him read it. After reading it he returned it to me with the following note: My dear Lanier: I see the good thing that you have sought to do; and I pereeiye that your argosies have returned with the Golden Fleece. Where all are good, comparison were inyidious, but The Menagerie, The Stoic, and The Mystic have the magic of true music; while The Light Bums Dovm is as exquisite as a cameo. My richest wish for you, dear Poet, is that you shall follow the Pipes o Pan until they shall lead you to stand within the empyrean and wear the amaranth of the victor. Faithfully yours, Platt.
