The Lyric is a collection of poems written by the English poet, playwright, and critic John Drinkwater. The book consists of forty-five poems, each exploring different themes such as love, nature, and the human condition. The poems are written in a lyrical style, with a focus on the beauty and musicality of language.Drinkwater's poetry is characterized by its simplicity and clarity, as well as its emotional depth and sensitivity. He often draws inspiration from the natural world, using vivid imagery and sensory details to capture the essence of his subjects. Many of the poems in The Lyric also explore the complexities of human relationships, from the joys of love to the pain of loss and separation.Throughout the book, Drinkwater's language is both elegant and accessible, making his poetry appealing to a wide range of readers. His use of rhyme and meter adds to the musicality of the poems, while his skillful use of metaphor and symbolism adds depth and complexity to the themes he explores.Overall, The Lyric is a beautiful and thought-provoking collection of poems that showcases John Drinkwater's mastery of the art of poetry. It is a must-read for anyone who appreciates the beauty and power of language, and who seeks to explore the depths of the human experience.We come, then, to the consideration of this specific quality that distinguishes what we recognise as poetry from all other verbal expression. Returning for a moment to Paradise Lost, we find that here is a work of art of which the visible and external sign is words. That it has three qualities--there may be more, but it is not to the point--architectural power, moral exaltation and a sense of character, each of which, although it may be more impressive when presented as it were under the auspices of the poetic quality, can exist independently of it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
