Excerpt from The Humbler Poets (Second Series): A Collection of Newspaper and Periodical Verse 1885 to 1910Not many realize, though the fact remains, that there are now publishing in English during every calendar year no fewer than a hundred volumes of significant and worthy verse, to which may be added two hundred volumes more which frequently contain passages of beauty. This implies that there are in the english-speaking world at least three hundred men and women who, already masters of an intricate and delightful technique, are inspired by sentiments lofty or tender, such as make for literary permanency. It is earnestly believed to be possible to compile every year from the verses given the light Of print during that time an anthology of short poems and excerpts which will compare favorably with any collection thus chronologically delimited gathered during any period of English literary history. Such a collection, so we feel assured, would suffer little, if at all, by comparison with the most brilliant twelvemonth of either the Elizabethan or Victorian era.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
