Tho Man Who Love, words

"Qrher folks, Of course, have their
poor pleasures" writes Richard Ee
Gailienne in Harper's Magazine, "but
for a man who loves words no joy the
world can give equals for him the hap
piness of having achieved a fine pas
sage or a perfect line. When Thack-
cray struck his fist on the table, as the
story goes, when he had finished the
scene Of Colonel Newcomers death and
exclaimed, BY God, this is genius"
there was no empire he would have ac-
cepted in exchange for that moment.
We often hear that your true artist IS
never satisfied with his work, his ideal
escapes him, the words seem poor and
ifeleSs, etc, compared with the dream.
Whoever started that story knew very
little about the literary temperament
or he would have known that the
words are the dream. The dream does
not exist even as dream or only very
ImperfectIy till it is set down in words.
