POETS OF THE PEOPLE.

A correspondent recently asked the New
York Sun for its opinion "of Byron and
Burns as poets, as compared with Brown
ing and Swinburne. The Sun answered
that Byron and Burns were poets of splen-
did and original genius, either one stand
ing clear above Browning or Swinburne.
This answer was. of course, to be ex-
pected; the surprising thing is that the
correspondent should have been so
destitute of native poetic taste as
to ask such question. And
yet Archdeacon Farrar, an eloquent
English preacher once told Boston that
Browning was, next to Shakespeare, the
greatest poet in the annals of English
literature. and another Englishman.
Thomas Hughes. author of "Tom Brown
st Rugby" told New York that our own
Lowell was greater poet than Byron.
But Matthew Arnold, the first of English
critics, and himself q man of fine poetic
genius, agrees with the Sun; he thinks
Byron great poet, whose fame has
steadily grown rather than faded since his
death.
the two OF three high souls that worship
at the very pinnacle of the shrine of poetic
psychology, didactics and metaphysics.
but the vast mass of reading and thinking
people will not waste much time on any
man who is not always and easily in
telligible. Poetry is not metaphysics.
nor psychology in rhyme or blank verse,
and until it is the poetry-loving world will
prize Byron and Burns above Browning.
Shakespeare's thought, when the text is
pure, is nearly always easily ineligible.
and so of Byron's resounding lines it can
be said that, mighty and close reasoner
in verse, he is always clear and ineligible
in thought, while much of Browning's
work is neither melodious nor Ineligible
compared with that of Byron.
We search Browning in vain for the
beauty. power and majesty of the finest
passages of "Childe Harold" or 1.-The
Glaour." Browning has an audience, fine
and few, refined, intellectual audience,
but the audience of Browning is not the
wide audience of Shakespeare, Burns or
Byron. Il is an audience of intellectual
caste and class that Graves Browning.
