Excerpt from Florilegium Latinum: Translations Into Latin Verse It was felt that justice could hardly be done to a representative collection of Translations from English Poetry like the present, if the specimens were confined to a single volume. The first instalment concluded with the period of Wordsworth and Landor. Through the unfailing help of many kind contributors, the second portion now continues the series to the close of the nineteenth century. This is not the place to define with precision what is meant by Poetry of the Victorian Age, or to estimate its distinctive characteristics. Versatility, great diversity of firm, multiplicity of styles, expression given to the complex phases of our modern life - these are some of the more obvious features which distinguish the last thirty or forty years of the reign of Queen Victoria. As to the amount of production, it has been said that never has this England of ours been so full of song.
