12mo, 94 pages, black clothbacked boards, orange dj; inked ownership of Marjorie Atwell Cary. "Sometimes . it is necessary that a so-called 'obscure' poet - whose obscurity merely lies in the wider range of his culture than that of his reader - requires an interpreter. Such an interpreter is Ethel Stephenson - Maurice Edelman." T. S. Eliot read the manuscript, and added many interesting references which inspired his work. This is the 2d printing of the Second edition, which was recasst in chronological order and has three additional chapters: "The Nature of Eliot's Poetry," "Poetic Form" and "Technique." "The Rock Choruses" have been extended and the two plays included with historic references bearing on the psychology of "Murder in the Cathedral.".
