“Mr. Doughty is the prophet of Patriotism. Wandering in the Muses’ Garden, he has received the divine call to chant patriot hymns, and it is his mission to rouse his country to a sense of the wrath to come in the guise of ‘air-flying Eastlanders.’ ‘The Clouds,’ is a passionate plea for the nation. His verse is astoundingly vivid and vehement, every now and then breaking into a startling beauty.”--English Review. “Mr. Doughty’s ideas and his outlook might be those of Nelson’s captains could they be called back to life. He thrills our imagination. His historical sense is so vital and far-reaching, his patriotic imagination so deeply rooted in the soil of our forbears’ achievements.... A poem that, we venture to think, will become a classic. ‘The Clouds,’ as an achievement, possesses a creative actuality, a breadth of vision, an intensity of imaginative life. The effect of the poem is cumulative, and no quotation can convey any idea of the atmosphere of the whole varied picture.”--The Nation. -------- A New Impression JOHN MORSE An Englishman in the Russian Ranks: Ten Months’ Fighting in Poland.
