WITH LOVE AND ADMIRATION

Four of these papers—the first Bibliotaph, and the notes on Keats, Gautier, and Stevenson’s St. Ives—are reprinted from the Atlantic Monthly by the kind permission of the editor.

I am also indebted to the literary editor of the Springfield Republican and to the editors of Poet-Lore, respectively, for allowing me to reprint the paper on Thomas Hardy and the lecture on An Elizabethan Novelist.
