Excerpt from The Shorter Works of Walter Savage Landor Cleone! I write from Athens. I hasten to meet your reproaches, and to sti e them in my embrace. It was wrong to have left Miletus at all it was wrong to have parted from you without entrusting you with my secret. N o, no, neither was wrong. I have with stood many tears, my sweet Cleone, but never yours; you could always do what you would with me and I should have been windbound by you on the Maeander, as surely and inexorably as the eet at Aulis by Diana. Ionia is far more beautiful than Attica, Miletus than Athens; for about Athens there is no verdure, no spacious and full and owing river, few gardens, many olive-trees, so many indeed that we seem to be in an eternal cloud of dust. However, when the sea breezes blow, this tree itself looks beautiful; it looks, in its pliable and undulating branches, irresolute as Ariadne when she was urged to y, and pale as Orithyia when she was borne away.

Poetry, in our day, is oftener prismatic than diaphanous: this is not so: they who look into it may see through. If there be anywhere a few small air-bubbles, it yet leaves to the clear vision a wide expanse of varied scenery.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
