Selected Poems (1923) is a collection of poems by American poet Robert Frost. Dedicated to Edward Thomas, a friend of Frost¿s and an important English poet who died toward the end of the First World War, Selected Poems is a wonderful sampling of poems from Frost¿s early collections, including A Boy¿s Will and North of Boston. Known for his plainspoken language and dedication to the images and rhythms of rural New England, Robert Frost is one of Americäs most iconic poets, a voice to whom generations of readers have turned in search of beauty, music, and life.¿Mowing¿ envisions the poet¿s work through the prism of rural labor. ¿There was never a sound beside the wood but one / And that was my long scythe whispering to the ground. / What was it it whispered?¿ The speaker does not know, but continues his task, hypnotized by its rhythm and simple music. In ¿After Apple-Picking,¿ as fall gives over to winter, the poet remembers in dreams how the ¿Magnified apples appear and disappear, / Stem end and blossom end¿ as he climbs the ladder into the heart of the tree. Both a symbol for life and a metaphor for the poetic act, apple picking leaves the poet ¿overtired / Of the great harvest [he himself] desired¿, awaiting sleep as he describes ¿its coming on,¿ wondering what, if anything, it will bring. ¿The Road Not Taken,¿ perhaps Frost¿s most famous poem, is a meditation on fate and free will that follows a traveler in an autumn landscape, unsure of which path to take, but certain he cannot stand still.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Robert Frost¿s Selected Poems is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Robert Browning (1812 - 1889) was an English poet and playwright whose mastery of dramatic verse, and in particular the dramatic monologue, made him one of the foremost Victorian poets. Table of Contents: Introduction: Robert Browning by G. K. Chesterton Plays: Paracelsus Strafford Bells and Pomegranates No. I: Pippa Passes Bells and Pomegranates No. II: King Victor and King Charles Bells and Pomegranates No. IV: The Return of the Druses Bells and Pomegranates No. V: A Blot in the ''scutcheon Bells and Pomegranates No. VI: Colombe''s Birthday Bells and Pomegranates No. VIII: Luria and a Soul''s Tragedy Herakles The Agamemnon of Aeschylus Pippa Passes is a verse drama, which was dedicated to Thomas Noon Talfourd, who had recently attained fame as the author of the tragedy Ion. The author described the work as "the first of a series of dramatic pieces." King Victor and King Charles was the second play written by Robert Browning for the stage. The subject of the play is the strange incident in 1730-32 in the Kingdom of Sardinia in which the elderly king, Victor Amadeus II, first abdicated in favour of his son Charles Emmanuel III, and then after months of ever-increasing complaints unexpectedly demanded to be restored. He was imprisoned until his death a year later. Browning''s treatment is based on 18th century sources which cast Victor as deliberately deceptive, but he goes further to create a secret history in which Charles is exonerated from all charges of cruelty. The play is in four acts and has only four main characters: Victor, Charles, Charles''s wife Polyxena, and the minister D''Ormea.
