the most exquisite:
Who knows what trouble trembled in
that throat
What sweet distraction for the sum-

That lured you out, a frail, careering
boat.
Across the midnight's purple, deep
lagoon
Some fire Of madness lit that tiny brain,
Some soft propulsion clouded through
your breast,
And lifted you. a white and moving
stain.
Against the dark Of that disastrous
quest.
The sadness Of all brief and lovely

The fine and futile passions that we

Haunt the bright wreck of your too fra

And win a pity for you, ended there

SA IAN was never so happily
Nj inspired as when he was
building cathedrals," Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson wrote in his chap
ter on the edifice at Noyon in "An
Inland Voyage" And after reading
Elizabeth Boyle O'Reillys book the
reader will be of the same mind as
r. l.. s. in this respect. "Architec-
ture Is the living voice of the past"
she writes. Architecture is history.
BY architecture the forefathers from
whom we come relate to us heir
progress In knowledge, their prowess
in handicrafts, their economic condi-
tons, their sorrows their rejoicings,
their aspirations. They wrote it down,
those men and women whose blood Is
our blood, on great stone pages of
perennial beauty for us to read-if only
we would. By architecture we are
linked in a grand solidarity with all
that has gone before, with the proud
periods of history that thrill us as we
read, and with the tragic outbreaks Of
the oppressed that sadden our spirit.
Whenever men have set them
selves to forget this solidarity, their
first act has been to fling themselves
in frenzy on cathedral and city hall.
In 1914 they forgot it, and mighty
Rheims fell. They forgot that Bam-
burg had learned its imagery from
Rheims, that German Norbert, revered
of st. Bernard, had helped France in
the days when Gothic art was in for
nation, that he died Bishop of Magde-
burg, and Magdeburg is a primary
Gothic cathedral in the land which
frankly called the new architecture
opus franci0enum. Would the civic
halls of Noyon, Arras. st. Quentin and
Ypres lie n ruins IL Frankfort and
Lubeck had remembered?
An enormous amount of reading
and study have gone into the making
of this book, for its author long has
been a profound student of her SUBJ
ject and it's literature. AS she says of
her sources: From the pages of such
students have been written these chap
ters by one who has felt that there
must be many travellers who love the
old cathedrals of Europe and have
wandered among them puzzled by half
understood things, longing to know
with exactitude how and when they
were built. So it has not seemed a
useless task to gather into these ten
chapters what the French scholars are
relating OF their churches. So swiftly
do archaeological discoveries follow one
another to-day that statements ac-
cepted now may be obsolete tomorrow.
The makers of history and art books
can hope to serve only their hour"

his "reminiscences are like gay colored

Yes, the ancient man shows quick
foot and a nimble spirit as well, along
with the acquired graces of half a
century of writing. There is a reading
public for each book he offers but it
is mature public. And grateful as
this public surely is for still another
volume exquisite in reserve and redo
lent Of delightful herbs, the very
names of which are half forgotten, yet
perhaps it asks why Edmund Gosse
does not lay aside the working habit
and rest at ease. To see him hasten
ing to the Wye for a fortnight's vaca-
ton, but laden with a sheaf of books
to review which are to puncture Il
rot abbreviate his holiday, gives one
pang.
That is far fetched emotion that
would not win sympathy from him.
No day without a line must have been
his motto for longer than he cares to
think of, and it is by now ingrained.
May he be preserved to write for us as
long as it is his pleasure. Certainly
1t Is ours no less.

Technically, Lady Speyer's poetry

reflection. stronger than the actual
emotion. She is never too disconsolate
to be vigorous, never too sombre to be

SHIPS IN HARBOUR. BY David Nor

TT would be hard to find a living
American who is more completely
= a master of the sonnet form than
David Morton. His poems, which
have been appearing from time TO
time in the magazines. have indicated
that fact: this collection is conclusive
proof of 1t. The vast majority of Mr..
Morton's poems are sonnets, and these
constitute by far the most notable por-
ton of his work. Not only in the
verse forms he selects but in his
themes and manner of expression Mr..
Morton is distinctly poet of the older

as does Edwin Arlington Robinson;
nor for satire, as do Louis Untermyer
and Others; rather, he sings simply of
the simple things of enduring beauty;
of summer, Of moonlight. of birds and
flowers and gardens.
Mr.. Morton's work Is pervaded with
n faint and dreamy sweetness, as OF
the altar of roses or of violets en-
closed in an old book. There is a visit
full. reminiscent lovelness about the
sonnets: they delight to evoke the
ghosts of forgotten things, of faded
flowers, of foundered ships. Of per-

a spirit almost ghostly moves through
the poetry. tenuous and enhancing,
but insubstantial as starlight, vague
as the cloud forms, so vague that af-

remains but a blurred sense Of beauty,
remembered in detail only as one re-

In q word, Mr. Morton's poems have
