Excerpt from The Gingko-Tree: And Other Verses, Translated and Original
IN issuing the following selection of my verses, I have been encouraged to include translations from the French and German, by the very friendly reception accorded to my previous little work, The Giant's Plaything, which appeared towards the end of the year 1920.
It is necessary for me, however, to emphasize the caution given in that work, namely, that these verses are intended to be free - not literal - translations. In all cases it is the idea contained in a poem that I have sought to transcribe, while following also, as far as possible, the metrical form of the original.
