✔️Published in August 1890.

The preface gives the explanation for this title: “This little book was written by four friends, three of them under-graduates at Oxford, and all of them penetrated with the spirit of the higher culture of our time.”

Each one of these poems are a pleasure to read. One in particular that I like (following) has a heartfelt tone:
A DREAM
God gives me one hour's rest,
To spend with thee on earth again:
How shall we spend it best?'
'Why, as of old,' I said; and so
We quarrell'd, as of old:
But, when I turn'd to make my peace,
That one short hour was told.
Stephen Phillips.


I would read this collection again, for it has a feeling of truther, togetherness, and camaraderie in its attitude.

🟣Kindle version.
