Some out OF town visitors were TAX

then another, to their surprise, would
quit waiting and sing.

Poets Of National ereatnsss.

Victor Hugo once said in his lord
ly, generalizing way, that it was
Shakespeare who prevented England
from being only another Carthage;
and it is indeed true that but for our
great poets we should not hold the
place we hold in the opinion of Eu-
rope. Because of them we do not
vince when we are described as a ma
ton of shopkeepers, for they prove
that we, like the Florentines and Vene-
tians, are something more than that
M. Bourget has expressed the general
wonder OF cultivated foreigners that
the English nation, which seems so
matter OF fact, and even dull, should
have produced two poets compared
with whose works all other poetry
seems to be prose; and these poets are
the very two who are to be honored to-
day in Rome. 1t is certainly a fact
that more than any other nation we
produce men of genius who vary ex-
tremely from our normal type, and we
never have produced more wonderful
poets than Shelley and Keats.-Lon-
don Times.
