42. I had made the comparison between Lanier and St. Francis before reading Dr. Gates's essay on Lanier, and was delighted to find my judgment confirmed by so competent a critic. Dr. Gates is quite emphatic: "Since St. Francis, no soul has seemed so heavily overcharged with this feeling of brotherhood for all created things."
'The Canticle of the Sun', otherwise known as 'The Song of the Creatures', may be found in metrical form in Mrs. Oliphant's life of St. Francis (New York, 1870) and in prose in Sabatier's (Scribners, New York, 1894).
54. Lanier has an 'Owl against Robin'.
57. See 'Introduction', p. xli [Part IV].
80-85. See 'Introduction', p. xliii [Part IV].
86-152. See 'Introduction', p. xlvii [Part IV]. Mr. F. F. Browne says that in lyric sweetness ll. 86-97 recall the best of Keats and Sh.e.l.ley.
114-115. See 'Introduction', p. xliv [Part IV].
127. Lanier has a poem ent.i.tled 'The Bee'.
134-136. See 'Introduction', p. xliii [Part IV].
181. Compare Mrs. Easter's tribute, 'Lit with the Sun'.
189-192. See 'Introduction', p. xxi [Part I], and compare Cowdin's tribute, 'Hopeset and Sunrise', and the closing stanza of Hamlin Garland's:
"While heart's blood ebbed at every breath He pa.s.sed life's head-land bleak and dun, Flew through the western gate of Death And took his place beside the sun."
