Présentation de l'éditeur
Preface A the close of his life approached, Swinburne frequently expressed his intention to extract from his various volumes those poems which were addressed to children, or were descriptive of cliild life, and to publish them in a separate collection. He died without having found occasion to carry out this plan, and he left no directions with regard to the way in which it ought to be done. But I have felt that there should be as little further delay as possible in currying out ms wish and design, and in preparing the rreser.t anthology I have been actuated by the sole tbovglit of what would have commended itself to him. :I have taken no liberties with the text; I have simply selected from the four volumes iu wluch they mainly occur namely, from Poems and Ballads, Second Series (1878), Tristram of Lyonesse and Other Poems (1882), AC entury of Roundels (1883), and Poems and Ballads, Third Series (1889) the pieces which are definitely concerned with infancy.
