. Swallow flights. women are sometimes betrayed. They re-veal, at times, the strength of passion ; but it is always passiontransfigured by love. Sometimes the feminine nature asserts itselfby a mournful irony, subtle as the most delicate aroma. We have but brief space to speak of the sonnets. They areexcellent in construction as in spirit. This volume will appeal primarily to poets ; but its unstrained,simple beauty of thought and expression will surely win for it a farwider audience. From the Simday Times,^ is something more than the gentle and pensive thought,the humanizing aspiration, which constitute the soul of muchpoetry from feminine sources. These qualities indeed are there ;but there is, in addition, a measure of poetic insight, and a powerof bringing into sympathetic accord human aspirations and thebeauty of exterior things, which is one of the rarest and mostprecious gifts of the poet. The volume is sure of a warm welcomewherever a love of true poetry is found. .^k Lsf;^.\>J. I. ., . ?A XT •? «^. /« *^ ^ - n .^•^•••::
