The Hospital section is the literary picture of a section of human suffering which has not before found its artist. There is here the result of a direct experience by one who knows what to say, what to indicate, what to leave unsaid. ' The Critic (New York) thinks ' Mr. Henley the easy achiever of all he essays to do, ' and signals out especially the 'jocosery, the grotesquery, and daintiness of form ' of the Bric-a-brac section. The Scotsman says ' the collection is one over which the lover of... poetry will linger . . . For its natural simplicity and directness of feeling, its careful, choice, and harmonious handling of language. ' The Weekly Register says of the Hospital poems, * They may be painful sometimes, but there is a tenderness in them which is educative to the most fastidious. ' A BOOK OF VERSES The Scottish Leader holds the book ' to combine that realism of actual and detailed description with that obscure essence of feeling, held captive by the right words, which is the eternal distinction between prose and poetry.
