is that as VIC of to-day have inherited

A Play.

Whoever reads Italian knows the
service GABRIELLE D'ANNUNZIo has done
his mother tongue. He writes a page
incompatible for the high poetic value
of its diction and for its lovely
cadence. His is a faculty innate and
then highly and consciously cuiti-
waited. II would take a poet. a mas
ter hand at English, even family TO

poets nor artists. Therefore D'.Annun-
zio's chief contribution to art is not
transferred and the play seems rather
q dull performance,
OF course D'Annunzio has definite
limitations. and in translation these
are more noticeable than in the orisi-
nal. His limitation Is intellectual; he
has not abundant invention nor subtle
intellectual process. He has delicate
sensibi!ities and a strong n alert
perception of the psychological value
OF the passions. The present play,
but for that psychology. might easily
have hailed from the Elizabethan PEE
riod. The decor Is, as is often the case
with D'Annunzio. the chief beauty. We
