PREFATORY NOTE
This is the fourth volume of the present series. I hope it may be thought
to show that what for want of a better word is called Peace has not
interfered with the writing of good poetry.
Thanks and acknowledgements are due to Messrs. Beaumont,
Blackwell, Collins, Constable, Fifield, Heinemann, Seeker, Selwyn &
Blount, and Sidgwick & Jackson; and to the Editors of 'The
Anglo-French Review', 'The Athenæum', 'The Chapbook', 'Land and
Water', 'The Nation', 'The New Statesman', 'The New Witness', 'The
New World', 'The Owl', 'The Spectator', 'To-day', 'Voices', and 'The
Westminster Gazette'.
