AUTHOR'S NOTE

This volume forms a complete collection of all my published work in verse from 1897 to 1918. It includes the contents of five previous volumes: Admirals All (1897), The Island Race (1898), The Sailing of the Long-Ships (1902), Songs of Memory and Hope (1909), and St. George's Day (1918), together with a number of pieces added to the later editions of the first two of these, ten poems first collected in Poems: New and Old (1912), and six which have not hitherto appeared in book form.
