Description
Excerpt from Welsh Poetry Old and New, in English Verse
Wales boasts of her early poets, and claims for her later singers a share of the divine fire and a considerable proficiency in literary work manship.
The translator''s work would be justified if he merely helped his readers to a fair judgment as to how far these claims are justified. Whether Mr. Graves has not achieved more and produced work that deserves to take its place in the fine company of English lyrics, I leave it to more competent critics to say.
