A small collection of Lang’s verse, dedicated to Austin Dobson. It opens with ‘Loyal Lyrics’ to the Stuart cause and the White Rose, a poem on the Maid marching from Blois and verses of the lonely deer forests, then turns to light ballades, including one on the incomparable food of fiction from Mrs. Gamp’s tea to Pendennis’s pie.
Gentle, bookish verse from the great Victorian man of letters. Download the free EPUB.
