Dally News. " These songs and poems are intensely and 

 sincerely felt . . . they have the fine, careful, literary cold- 

 ness of some of the lyrics of Landor or of the more serious 

 work of Peacock. ... It is the poetry of a refined and 

 knightly nature . . . and it deserves to be studied and re- 

 membered ... its mood is austere and its temper noble." 



Globe. " Excellent verses, easy, melodious, and charm- 

 ing." 



Tribune. "All lovers of poetry will be grateful for 

 Mr Stephen Coleridge's volume. Dainty and finished in 

 execution, and instinct with a genuine human sympathy, 

 these lyrics betray the hand of a craftsman in verse. . . . 

 Verses of this quality should secure for ' Songs to Desideria' 

 a sincere welcome." 



Glasgow Herald. "The Hon. Stephen Coleridge has 

 already established his position among the more tuneful 

 writers of true lyric verse, and into all that he writes the 

 poet puts delicacy and true emotion ; the former never 

 becomes mere phrase, the latter never degenerates into 

 wordy passion." 



South Wales Daily News. " There is sometimes a depth 

 of feeling in his passages for which one usually looks only in 

 the great masters of English literature."
