Synopsis:

A splendid collection of over 200 poems by English and American authors, this volume brings the rich variety and creative power of the poetic imagination to every reader. Unique to this edition is the beautiful artwork on each page, sixteen different delicate designs.

Poetry lovers will find works that inspire, influence, and move them to laughter, tears, or quiet thoughtfulness. There are works from Milton and Wordsworth, from Shakespeare and Byron. There are old friends, such as Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven," Tennyson's "Break, Break, Break," and Longfellow's "The Wreck of the Hesperus," and less familiar poems such as W. O. Bourne's "The Heart's Fine Gold," and Bayard Taylor's "The Goblet."

Here, too, are unfamiliar works, selections by unknown poets, and neglected pieces of the masters. This collection provides the joy of rediscovering an old friend, the surprise in meeting a new one, and an introduction to the lasting pleasure of poetry.
