"Such poems as 'A Lady,' 'Music,' 'White and Green,' are wellnigh flawless in their beauty—perfect 'images.'"—Harriet Monroe, Poetry.
"Her most notable quality appears in the opening passage of the volume. The sharply etched tones and contours of this picture are characteristic of the author's work.... In 'unrhymed cadence' Miss Lowell's cadences are sometimes extremely delicate, as in 'The Captured Goddess.'"—Arthur Davison Ficke, Chicago Dial.
