"THE ME88IAH,"
Ethol Syford, a Nebraska graduate,
has tho distinction of having written
ono of tho six flneBt lyrics of tho year,
her poom, "Hungarian Lovo Lament,"
bolng ranked second only to Schea
mas O'Sheal's "Ho Whom a Dream
Hath Possessod," in William Stanley
Bralthwalfs anthology of magazine
poetry, "The Lyric Year."
Tho contest was tho ldoa of Mr.
Pordlnand Earl, says Mr. Brathwalto
In an article In tho Boston Transcript,
and it is due to his efforts that the
anthology was issued and to his con
tributions to funds for tho prlzos that
pootry of such high worth has found
tsway into magazino literature Bui
due. Braithwait him-
in contemporary
cacy of tho poetl-
literaturo. It Is
'hamplonship and
a New York
that pu
raturo
ie
bound volumes which aro rapidly gain
ing wldo circulation. Brathwait finds
In pootry tho means of preserving and
orocting tho finer Ideals of the nation
nnd hopes that tho ronowed interest
shown this year will lead to another
golden ngo In which poetry will come
to its own again.
Miss Syford's poom is characterized
by tho Intensity and earnestness ot
tho omotlon under tho weary control
thnt comoB from tho sonao of tho mul
tiform, hurrying, purposeful llfo that
goes on lnattontatlvoly about tho
Lover, who, now that Sho Is dead,
finds no lntorost, no care for llfo, and
hears nothing Bavo tho wlerd cry of
(he wild cranes ovorhoad
Her poom follows
Hungarian Lovo Lament.
Tho nay (he cranes last night did cry
Overhead
I did not hoar thorn.
For In a hut by Tlsza's torrents
My lovo lies (load
1 hoard tho whinny of hor milk white
stood
Calling to her.
That hoard I
riu say tho oak tree's leaves ure
sere
What caro I?
I havo Home faded violets,
Those I hold dear
Sho gavo thorn me.
rhoy Hay that Szolnok's field's afire,
If so, I caro not.
Thnt could not koep mo from my lovo
Wore sho not cold.
Saw'st Szolnok's flames?
Oh, well, thoy could not warm me,
My blood Is chilled.
Thoy sa throe gypslos at tho tavern
Sang their songs.
Let them sing!
I could not dance -I
am too lonely for their minstrels
I wish my love might waken.
Rut she cannot.
Piesh vloletB she would bring me,
But sho will not.
For cold In death sho Hob, by TlBza's
torrents,
And sho'll not come again!
