From Arthur QuillerCouch’s 1919 Introduction to this extensive collection: “For this Anthology I have tried to range over the whole field of English Verse To bring home and render so great a spoil compendiously has been my capital difficulty. It is for the reader to judge if I have so managed it as to serve those who already love poetry and to implant that love in some young minds not yet initiated.”
