…ear to His right hand than the vaunted virgins who would soil no hem of vesture to save their brother from the worm that dieth not ! The Works of George Archibald Bishop will speak for themselves ; it would be both impertinent and superfluous in me to point out in detail their many and varied excellences, or their obvious faults. The raison d’être, though, of their publication, is worthy of espe- cial notice. I refer to their psychological sequence, which agrees with their chronological order. His life- history, as well as his literary remains,…

…ic that made his lines quiver and shimmer like live coals. And the end was to have been so perfect: there was on the last passage of his work a hush, a silence almost as if the world—his world—awaited the voice of some great one. And now the silence is not broken. Perhaps men were not ready for those final chords. Perhaps to hear them would be to pass where he has passed! But oh! the pity! To leave his greatest task undone! To be stricken down in the last charge, a good soldier to the end! Would God he could come back only

…o did a brave sad heart grow glad again And mock the riddle that the dead Sphinx saith. When I am dead, remember me for this That I bade workers work, and lovers kiss ; Laughed with the Stoic at the dream of pain, And preached with Jesus the evangel bliss. When I am dead, think kindly. Rail my song ! Twas the poor utterance of an eager tongue ; I stutter in my rime ? my heart was full Of greater longings, more divinely wrung By love and pity and regret and trust, High hope from heaven that God will be just, Spurn not the child because his mind…

…all doctrinaires, Mr. Pound is exposed to the besetting sin of the half-true or the maybe-true platitude. ‘The mastery of any art is the work of a lifetime, for example. How about the art of lyric poetry, how about Sappho and Keats and Swinburne’s early work? Again, we must have ‘direct treatment,’ Mr. Pound affirms, and we must ‘use absolutely no word that does not contribute to the presentation.’ Such pronouncements are either platitudes or untrue, they either mean nothing that can’t be taken for granted or a good deal that can’t.

…till stricken and blasted in latter years by the lightning of his own sins) was steadily writing day after day, night after night, often working forty hours at a time, work which he destined to entrance the world. All England should ring with his praises ; bye-and-bye the whole world should know his name. Of these works none of the longer and more ambitious remains. How they were lost, and how those frag- ments we possess were saved, is best told by relating the romantic and almost incredible story of his life. The known facts of this life are …

He issued acareless manifesto, calling upon the Universe to adore, and nothing particular coming of this, he lost interest. It is what he calls “The way of the Tao” to do everything by doing nothing. Take no trouble or care about a matter; it will come to pass. It seems to us a sort of happy fatalism; to him it is the highest of magical formulae. The ups…
