New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1931. 73 pp. Some rubbing on corners, lettering on spine fading. else very nice. Signed by the author on FFEP, New Canaan, October 1931. Frontis a pleasant drawing of a barn in winter by Bailey. Betrayed perhaps by a now overly tongued title, the poetry is crisp and musical, as in 'Dead Language': 'Romance now is a dead language / We spoke long ago. / Since it has become archaic, / Let us use it so / That the lovely words seem coolings / From a lava flow, / Each averted like the profile / Of a cameo.' Or sealed with wit as in 'Irony': 'Poe stayed in Providence; / Forth he went / Friendless and destitute, / Improvident.'. Signed by Author. First Edition. Quarter Cloth. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
