Mr. Beeching's love of nature in its homelike aspects is very genuine, his passion and his pietjr are alike sincere, and his lyric gift is far from insignificant. It is never common or jarring. One reads it with interest, and returns to it with pleasure." THE WORKS OF ARTHUR C. BENSON LORD VYET, AND OTHER POEMS. i6mo. ^1.25. LYRICS. Fcap. 8vo. Buckram. ^1.50. THE PROFESSOR, AND OTHER POEMS.

It is poetry so sequestered, so soft, so alert for the sounds of earth and the voices that whisper near earth. His is the true poetic spirit, and with each book his manner grows sweeter and more assured." The Athenceum: "Mr. Benson is an accomplished writer of verse. He is sincere, unaffected, and has observed certain things which most people do not observe, and with so vivid an interest in them himself that Iiis record of these things in verse seems to suggest a new kind of poetic substance."
