Excerpt from Drama of Life: Sonnets and Music
This edition is being issued for those who are either personal friends or have shown a special interest in my work. I think, therefore, that it is filling that I should introduce it by a few personal words, a little more intimate than I should write for a general edition.
To dare to be frankly personal is one of the privileges of intimacy. Some of the most charming of private letters are those in which the writer takes it for granted that his own doings will be of real interest to his correspondent, and discourses upon them freely and without apology or any other form of jarring self-consciousness. He will even be forgiven for writing of his grievances if he but present them with sufficient spontaneity.
