SIR: shall remember with lifelong delight
my last hour with Bayard TAYLOR. Ills conversation was
all about the scandinavian yre and lore. There WAS
irresistible and charming nauraness IN everything that
he SAID his O the time play l As boy
out Of school His Ike sunshine, seemed 10 wake
into bloom rae sleeping good In all around him. He
spoke of few verses OF mine he had seen from the
Swedish as geuerou-y and approvingy as II and not
ne were the master and he and not !, were the ANA
teur In his worldwide travels seemed to have lost
all cgotsn, ana al prejudice, and kept only kindly pref
erencc- lie proved his theories not by attacking your
prcudlces battling your opinions. but by asking one
apt question: or advancing one stubborn fact. He
thought al poetry should translated In It's tnal
measure. When asked HIM how some OF Bishop Teg-
ner', poems with their long swedish vOrds-so short n
the corresponding EngIish-cOuh be tremendously
translated Ia their original measure he said What
world You think OF the burial OF sir Jonn
Moore being translated into any other Ian
guage IN any other measured Would not the palntiyr
patno. be all gone :" He could have chosen 4
COW incing example. and IN bis wonderful Faust"
how has he made his words move In artistic mar
mouy a. If marching IN faithful LOYALTY to their native
music.
Mr. Tavor said he had No gift whatever a speaker.
and that he cated nothing fr hts fame traveller
half he added " could only write one poem that
liV- after ~ should thdt thau al l
have done" only few munths alter hts words
came back wildly TO when December afternoon
Mr.. LuugfelON said To ., u could only know
one, thoughts would i've after him" Mr. TAYLOR had
much greater things that be wanted 10 do. that he
AIT tuat ne had done very little. not
worto speaking Of. There was ever Quain humility 10
ais manner; longing for the best dss abstraction
with any ming hi- efforts absolutely perfect.
