Then turned she where her parent stood, and cried: *0 father I grieve no more: the ships can sail.' " If there be anjrwhere in English literature a poem of more sere]ae and^flawless beauty than this, I, for one, should not know where to look for it. But the poem is strictly classical in style, offering no romantic allurements to the sense, and its appeal is obviously made to a limited class of readers of refinement. Lan- dor is the poet's poet among modems, as Spenser is the poet's poet among E...lizabethans. It is not proba- ble that he will ever be a widely popular poet. In spite of Lowell's dictum that, save Shakespeare alone, uo other writer of English "has furnished us with so Digitized by Google WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR 183 many delicate aphorisms of hmnan nature," his phrases have never found general currency. Bart- lett's "Familiar Quotations'' leaves Landor but poorly represented, although one might reasonably expect to find such lines as "We are what suns and winds and waters make us," and "Grief hunts us down the precipice of years," and the phrase descriptive of that "world of memories and sighs" consecrated to Rose Aylmer.
