Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Modern Comedy, and Other Poems
From seven pounds to twelve or thirteen stone, From consciousness of three drab things alone Food, drink and warmth to brain growth intricate And charged with passions; to youth at grips with fate, Wrestling with fortune, with face to fame addressed, Filled with vague longings, desires unexpressed Tales of the springtime when the wild things mate. Some scour distant lands for soft-armed brides.
