Excerpt from Corydon: An Elegy in Memory of Matthew Arnold and Oxford

The general form and subject of this poem are defined sumciently on \the title page as an Elegy in memory of Matthew Arnold and Oxford. The title itself, Corydon, was naturally suggested 'by Arnold's own Thyrsis, an Elegy peculiarly dear to those that love both Oxford and poetry. To all such I would fain h0pe Corydon may make some appeal, for its subject's sake, if not for any merit of its own. The fuller meaning of the poem I have sought to indicate by the prosaic device of a detailed table of contents, so that I may dispense with a longer preface and all notes of explanation.
