Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

To R. S. H. hai Pdthee poet in the days before A dearer bond had knit my heart to thu Laving thee then for that thou lavedst the sea And wast a dweller by the storm-beat shore Where strayd my steps of old and oceans roar Brought news from dreamland ere the worlds decree Set my unwilling feet no longer free In toilsome paths and exile evermore. But for the dear sake of thy child who late Her plighted hand forever laid in mine, Now shall my love confess the name of son, Ofcuthful seeker of the Cup Divine, A lbeit, long since, beyond the Heavenly Gate, Thou hast achieved thy Quest on earth begun.
