Glasgow Herald.—"Always poetry—poetry vital with energy and clothed with beauty and at times with splendour."

Literary World.—"Deserves attention from those who can enjoy one of the finest pleasures of the mind—namely, that process by which the spirit of an age becomes articulate.... Full of power, of ecstasy, of a fury of joy."

Pall Mall Gazette.—"A signature which has come to be watched with the greatest attention, and welcome wherever it appears."

The Athenæum.—"We quail before his thunderous broadsides of language... as we read him he suggests stupendous phenomena."

The Times.—"Vigour of thought and imagination and remarkable wealth of poetic diction."

The Scotsman.—"Will be read with especial interest and sympathy by readers who like modern poetry that keeps alive the traditions of a spiritualised nature-worship."

The Academy.—"We have nothing but admiration for the work."

Westminster Review.—"A poet of exceptionally fine calibre."

Aberdeen Free Press.—"Possesses great poetic merit.... The magnificent 'Hymn to the Midnight.'"

The Morning Post.—"Power, originality, insight.... His work is above all things virile... real passion and true imagination."

The Yorkshire Post.—"His imaginative insight into life's realities is powerfully displayed in such pieces as 'Dreams,' and 'The Splendid Mistake.' In 'The Seer in the Doomed City' he has achieved a vision starkly impressive in its symbolism, haunting in its imaginative conception, and noble in its moral."

T.P.'s Weekly.—"... breathing virility and strong kindness in every line."

The Yorkshire Observer.—"Places the writer among the true poets of his time."

The Irish Times.—"Here is verse which really sings, ideas which are fresh and strong, language which is in the highest sense poetical."
