A Poetic Idyl, which is charming in its sweet purity, delightful in iii optimism, elusive in its complete symbolism, but wholesome in its message that pure love can conquer evil.

So out of the cold North, out of the mouth of the world's most terrible misogynists, comes a strange message one which is as sweet as it is unexpected. And August Strindberg, the enemy of love, sings that pure love is all powerful and all-conquering.—SPRINGFIELD, MASS., REPUBLICAN.

It is worth while to have all of the plays of such a great dramatist in our English tongue. Since the death of Ibsen he is the chief of the Scandinavians. . . The publishers deserve thanks and support for their enterprise. There has long existed a need for just such an edition of contemporary foreign plays. . . ."— THE SUN, Baltimore.

" An idyllic play, filled with romantic machinery of the Northern fairy tales and legends, ... It belongs to a class by itself. . . ."—PHILADELPHIA RECORD.
