...lovers be "brave" in their love? One may surmise the explanation, but it does not seem to me that the poem makes it clear. The piece has emotional and descriptive power. The verse is weakened in places by unnecessary repetition of words and phrases: "that drift--that drift," "wild, wild symphony," and several other expressions. The weird, solemn picture in "The Caravan" is impressive, the wording is good (preponderance of monosyllables), and the vagueness gives the imagination free play. The interrogation points in the second and third stanzas should be omitted. The conception in "The Flower Stall" is good...

...last of the fourth the Holy Cross infield went up in the air. Aronson's grounder was fumbled by Carney, and as Mansfield got in the base-line, Aronson collided with him so that he dropped the ball. Larkin threw Lanigan's bunt wild, and when Currier bunted. Larkin's throw went past Carney, and Aronson scored, while the other two reached second and third. With nobody out Simons went out on a grounder to second. Harding bunted to pitcher, and Lanigan was out at the plate. Harding stole second, and Currier was almost out between third and home...
