Description

Excerpt: "These selections from the poetry of Robert Browning have been made with especial reference to the tastes and capacities of readers of the high-school age.

Every poem included has been found by experience to be within the grasp of boys and girls.

Most of Browning's best poetry is within the ken of any reader of imagination and diligence.

To the reader who lacks these, not only Browning, but the great world of literature, remains closed: Browning is not the only poet who requires close study.

The difficulties he offers are, in his best poems, not more repellent to the thoughtful reader than the nut that protects and contains the kernel.

To a boy or girl of active mind, the difficulty need rarely be more than a pleasant challenge to the exercise of a little patience and ingenuity."
