ABSTRACT
Many, truly, will follow critics beyond appreciating his thought as quaint, ingenious, and elaborate, so far as to consider it unnatural, fantastic, and trifling. Some, imputing to the author lack of sympathy and designed ruggedness, call his work essentially unpoetic. Fortunately, but a few persons, although some there are, go so far as terming both poet and his work tasteless, unfeeling, violent, execrable, and disgusting.
