W. D. HOWELLS AS A POET.

With respect to form. these later
poems of Mr.. Howells come very near
to perfection. They are curiouSly sim
pie in structure and dictlon, but none
the less forceful, artistic, and original;
they are brief and conciSe-nOt line,
not word too many; they are as COM
plete in themselves and as free from
excrescence and angularity as a fine
PEARL their imagery is fresh and strlk-
ing; their coloring is warm, human, and
natural; and their intention and effect
are singularly identical. ''rhe Bewil-
dered Guest" has often been quoted:
| was not asked if should like to come.
| have not seen my host here since came,
Or had word of welcome i'll his name.
Some say that we shall never see him, and
some
That we shall see him elsewhere, and then
Why we were bid How long am to stay
l have not the least notion. None, they
Was ever told when he should come or go.
But every now and then there bursts upon
The song and mirth a lamentable noise,
A sound of shrieks and SObS, that strikes
our joys
Dumb in our breasts and then some one is
gone.
They say we meet him. None knows where
or when.
We know we shall not meet him here again.
''Heredity" is a powerful little poem,
untlinching in its presentation of fact
and strongly dramatic in the last line:
That swollen paunch you are doomed to
bear
Your gluttOnOuS grandSire used to wear;
That tongue, at once SO light and dull,
Wagged in your grandma'S empty skull;
That leering of the sensual eye
Your father, when he came to die,
Left yours alone and that cheap flirt,
Your mother, gave you from the dirt
The shipper which she used upon
So many men ere he was won.
Your vanity and greed and lust
Are each your portion from the dust
OF those that died, and from the tomb
Made you what you must needs become.
do not hold you aught to blame
For sin at second hand, and shame:
Evil could but from evil spring;
And yet, away, you charnel thing.
"Change," is a sonnet of deep emo
ton, rare simplicity, and fine fluency.
Sometimes, when after spirited debate
Of letters or affairs, in thought go
Smiling unto myself, and all aglow
With some immediate purpose, and elate
AS if my little, trivial scheme were great,
And what would so were already so;
Suddenly I think of her that died, and
know,
Whatever friendly or unfriendly fate
Refall me in my hope or in my pride,
1t is all nothing but a mockery,
And nothing can be what it used to be,
When could bid my happy life abide.
Then, in the deathless days before she

would begin at my hips and extend to
my forehead. For six or seven weeks
could not walk without the aid of
cane in each hand.

told by a friend to try a bottle of
DR.. Greene's Nervura, and if found
no relief from it he would give my

ton. Then bought one more, and it
made such vast change in my con-
dition, bought another, and SO on,

When'I began taking the Nervura
weighed no pounds and at the end

as youth of Is years."

The Tempest.

We were crowed in the cabin,
Not soul would dare to sleep
1t was midnight on the waters
And a storm was on the deep.
IT'S fearful thing in winter
To be shattered by the blast,
And to hear the rattling trumpet
Thunder, "cut away the mast!'
So we shuddered there in silence
For the stoutest held his breath,
While the hungry sea was roaring,
And the breakers talked with Death.
AS thus we sat in darkness,
Each one busy in his prayers,
eve are lost" the captain shouted
As he staggered down the stairs.
But his little daughter whispered,
As she took his icy hand,
"lsn't God upon the ocean,
Just the same as on the land?'
Then we kissed the little maiden,
And we spoke in better cheer,
And we anchored safe in harbOr
When the morn was shinging clear.
