Excerpt from The Gift of Friendship, and Other Verses HE greatest blessing that one can give another as he travels through life is the gift of friend ship to those whom he has learned to love. To have given others the assur ance and proof of one's friendship is to have lived profitably. To have received from others the pledge and evidence of their love is to have lived richly. And the man who has both given and received this blessing is rich indeed. These occasional verses have been written during a period of nearly twenty years to say frankly to a few friends a little of what their friendship has meant to me. If they have carried my message of gratitude to the hearts of those for whom they were written, they have fulfilled their first mission. If in this collected form they serve as mes sage bearers for others, I shall be glad to have shared them.

Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
