Mifflin, Lloyd. Fleeing nymph and other verse. [**]$1. Small.
A group of about fifty poems whose themes include life, love and nature. “None of the shorter pieces in Mr. Mifflin’s volume is very notable. All have the grace that comes from the sparing, delicate use of words, many are picturesque and pleasing in conception; but there is a certain softness of tone in them that is not wholly a pleasant softness.” (Nation.)
