Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Volume II, No. 2; 12mo; 28 pages; Clean and secure in original red wrappers. Pagination: (ii), 31-53, (3). From Shuster's preface: "These days men of my generation remember, as fighting moves past slumbering Pompei and towards Rome, that Vergil, Horace and Dante lived among the pea…sants and townsfolk of Italy. Since they dies, light and shadow have moved tirelessly across the earth, and quite as much blood as wine has been spilled in all the valleys which lie between Messina and Pescara. But who does not know that their mighty spirits, having loved the mortal show, now keep the rapture of immortality? For they were poets, indeed are poets still; and to these is given the taste of sweetness that is in bitter things, like young death, and the savor of aloes such as there is in young love.".
