...packing poetry, wants ease and life; Mr. Aiken a longer poem ("The Spirit of Christmas Eve"), which shows little individuality, and not much responsiveness in vocabulary. Mr. Wheelock appears twice in this number, neither time in a Christmas spirit and neither time at his best. "The Return after Death" is ambitious and in spots effective, but suffers from want of metrical skill and from occasional weakness of word. The "Song," though less faulty, is also less interesting.
