Description
Excerpt from The Gentle Craft
Apart from The Overthrow of Proud Holofernes and from the doubtful Patient Grissel exotics as thoroughly domesticated as the stories of Arthur only one of the ballads that have been preserved, namely Alphonso and Ganselo, is foreign as to subject matter and scene. Indeed, viewed in the large, Deloney's poems disclose the native English note everywhere. His mind and art alike justify the term homemade a fact, which, as we shall see presently, goes far to explain the origin and character of his three novels.
