Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poetry and the Renascence of Wonder
When he left St. Ives and came to reside with me in London, he was already a middle-aged man. With him he brought his treatise on Poetry in rough manuscript form. It by no means covered the broad field contemplated in the first ?ush of youthful enthusiasm; even the portions dealing with the first principles of poetic art seemed to him, an exceptionally conscientious worker, to need further revision. But finding himself busily engaged in journalism, while at the same time continuing to follow his profession as a solicitor, those Spare moments which he had thought to bestow upon the treatise proved lamentably insufficient.
