“This is a second series of translations from Petrarch—containing ten sonnets, two canzoni, a ballata, and a double sestina.... If they do not succeed in achieving the impossible, that is, in a perfect reproduction of the Petrarchian spirit, they have, at any rate, much of the rare atmosphere which pervades ‘The house of life’ and Rossetti’s translations from the Italian.”—Ath.
“These translations are of great poetical merit.”
