...last two stanzas seems not quite at home with its form. "Transition," by Mr. Benshimol, lacks the variety of pause and cadence that blank verse demands, and is not always happy or clear in its figures of speech, but deserves praise for its poetic quality. Mr. Howe's "Morning Song" fills two Sapphic stanzas, each of which has in the third verse one more syllable than the orthodox number. Mr. Howe follows the rhythm of the Latin Sapphic scanned rather than the rhythm of the Latin Sapphic merely read--the rhythm of Swinburne rather than of Cowper. Also he introduces...

...regularity of account and rhyme by still subtler musical' effects. What they give us is rather vague prose, spoiled by inversions. Mr. Denison's "Sonnet" has a good tenth line spoiled by an unmetrical eleventh, and is somewhat over-weighted by the simile in the octave. In his "Night Song," Mr. Sanger has an interesting theme, but does not keep quite close enough...
