Excerpt from Earth and New Earth

The first poem in this volume is permitted to stand as it appeared in the Century Magazine soon after the outbreak of the War. The second but re-expresses such sympathies as must pave the way to any prospect of world-citizenship. The third, a drama in one act, has Militarism - here "early" Prussian - as its abhorrence.

Other poems touching on the War have been placed elsewhere in the volume - which needs no further comment, unless I may express a hope that English poetry, so often hospitable to alien verse-forms, may also adopt that of the Japanese hokkai - the spirit and method of which I have sought to reveal, in examples of my own, under "Poetic Epigrams." For the art value of the hokkai - its antagonism to the obvious - is a quality which all true literature must increasing seek.
