HR. MEREDITH'S POETRT.

THE WAY TT STRIKES FELLOW RRIToN
Mr. Merediths later poetry is OF course. taken
with all due seriousness by his fellow country
men. but the latter are not averse To giving him
some frozen truths on the subject. rs witness
this fragment from The Athen;eum'': "Mr
Meredith has half the making of a great artist
in verse. He has harmony without melody, he
invcnts and executes marvellous variations
upon verse; ne has footed the tight rope of the
galliambic measure and the swaying plaEks of
various trochaic experiments; hut his resolve Ia

and he let's technical skill carry him into such
