Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936). The New Poetry: An Anthology. 1917.

Themes

Miriam Allen deFord

From “Under the Cliff”

“I REMEMBER” and “I wish”—

Of such stuff are poems fashioned;

Poems lyric with regret,

Vibrant poems, dream-impassioned.

In your honor and your praise

I would strike a richer chord,

Sing: “I have you and am yours,

O adorer and adored!”
