titled: "Sappho; One Hundred Lyrics,
by Bliss Carmen"
scriptwise, only one ode and a few
fragments were known to scholars of
the writings of Sappho before the ap-
pearance of Mr.. Carmen's volume.
Did Mr. Carmen go Greeceward and
dig in ruined cities OF did he ransack
old monasteries in Crete and Pales
tine for the yellow papyrus manu-
scripts containing these lost odes?
Assuredly not. Such quest would
have been most probably fruitless and
most certainly expensive.
Mr. Carmen. to use the language of
his introducer. who wakes eloquent in
the forepart of the book, imagined
the lost odes "and then translated
them"
True 1t is that "as imagination
bodies forth the forms of things un.
known, the poets pen turns them to
shape, and gives to airy nothing To-
cal habitation and a name"
The achievement is clever; but was
Iit worth the trouble?
Mr.. Carmen is a poet of no small
power. and we marvel that he should
have wasted his energies on the imag-
linary excavation of feeble odes by a
poetess long since deaf. whose very
existence IS doubted-but who, il
alive. would hardly have composed
verses so plainly suggestive of crack
lers and milk.
