Only for the soil which stares In the stark might of his deed In his wrist more strength is hid Stauncher than stern Everest Not the Atlantic sweeps a flood He, his horse, his ploughshare, these Are the only verities. Dawn to dusk, with God he stands, The Earth poised on his broad hands. THE SINGER OF HIGH STATE On hills too harsh for firs to climb, Such godlike stuff his spirit drinks, Stark tumults, which no tense night awes, On hills uplift from Space and Time, With stars to give his furnace food, A REFERENCE BIBLIOGRAPHY The following thirteen volumes deal, in considerable detail, with many of the poets, groups and tendencies considered in this collection. A few treat principally of the period between 1860 and 1890; the majority, however, reflect the shifting course of contemporary poetry. Most of the thirteen contain liberal quotations, references, and suggestions for supplementary reading. AIKEN, CONRAD. Scepticisms: Notes on Contemporary Poetry. Alfred A. Knopf. 1919.
