Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Chastelard and Mary Stuart: Two Tragedies
Then there leapt upon the world a man who in Atalanta and Poems and Ballads, and the poems that followed invented more metres than all his con temporaries - nay more than all the other poets in the language put together, from Chaucer down to his own day - a man of whom it may be said that he rarely writes a poem without inventing for it a new metre a metre that is more melodious than could be invented by any other English poet.
