Page talk:In the Seven Woods, Yeats, 1903.djvu/25

I am not sure what you mean by full stops being "in middle of verses above." Thanks for the validations, by the way. If you ever get bored with validating a particular work you are of course not obliged to complete it :) This work apparently was a turning point in Yeats' writing, being in favor of a more "spare style" (WP)... It is also around the time Mrs. Coates wrote a poem To William Butler Yeats (Jan 1904) asking him to "tell us of beauty!" and to "let others hate" (emphasis mine). I wanted to proofread the work to see whether Coates was addressing this particular work with her words, but I think I need to read some of his earlier work as well to get a better perspective... I am a poor critic and analyst... Londonjackbooks (talk) 17:23, 14 January 2016 (UTC)


 * I thought the full stops (US: periods) might give a clue to the stanza breaks, but a glance at preceding ones showed that wasn't going to help. What you have been doing is probably best, comparing this with another edition, I will do the same if I return to it. CYGNIS INSIGNIS 10:42, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
