…ough it were not much more than the success of expecta- tion. He was hailed as a promising young man, and a follower of Swinburne. It is true that young men usually follow somebody or something ; but this does not imply depreciation. It is also true that some critics appear to expect an absolutely impossible origi- nality, and that they forget Emerson’s dictum that the greatest genius is the most indebted man.
