This unity has, if you like, various ' aspects ' or ' sides/ but they are not factors or parts ; if you try to examine one, you find it is also the other. Call them substance and form if you please, but these are not the reciprocally exclusive substance and form to which the two contentions must refer. They do not ' agree/ for they are not apart : they are one thing from different points of view, and in that sense identical. And this identity of content and form, you will say, is no accident ; ...it is. Of the essence of poetry in so far as it is poetry, and of all art in so far as it is art. Just as there is in- music not sound on one side and a meaning on the other, but expressive sound, and if you B 2 20 POETRY FOR POETRY'S SAKE ask what is the meaning you can only answer by pointing to the sounds ; just as in painting there is not a meaning plus paint, but a meaning in paint, or significant paint, and no man can really express the meaning in any other way than in paint and in this paint ; so in a poem the true content and the true form neither exist nor can be imagined apart.
