Of silver the best, Goldsmiths shall beat you A great golden ring, Peacocks shall bow to you, Little boys sing.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an anthology offering a fascinating glimpse into English Poetry from the Victorian era to the start of the 20th century. Edited and arranged by one of the era's finest poets, A. E. Housman, this collection includes some of the most recognisable, beautiful, and popular poems in the English language and serves as an invaluable record of the ideas and themes that defined a complex and enthralling time in history. Arranged aesthetically, almost musically, within the volume's pages are poems dealing with the natural world, man's relationship with the divine, love and romance, death and mortality, and many other motifs common to the period's literature. From the dramatic turns of Browning to the lyrical genius of Christina Rossetti, this book is a celebration of the strength of form and profound emotional expression that is the hallmark of Victorian verse. It is essential reading for anyone interested in this period of literature or poetry in general.
