In a poem by this author, an “ashamed” figure who says “if I did good deeds, I know not of them” is praised as the “best little blade of grass” by God. The speaker of a poem by this man demands that (15[2])a seer show him “the book of wisdom”; when he (-5[1])does, the (15[1])speaker (15[2])notes “strange that I should have grown so (-5[1])suddenly (-5[1])blind.” A “fool” who strives for greatness is told (10[1]-5[1])“go (10[1])pluck a bough (10[1])and wear (-5[1])it” in one (10[1])of the (10[1])many short (10[1])verses this poet called “lines.” In this man's (10[1])first collection, a poem (10[1])that describes the (*) “ride of Sin” (10[1])precedes one in which a “creature, naked, bestial” (10[2])tells the (10[1])speaker (10[4])“I like (10[1])it (-5[1])/ because (10[1])it is bitter (10[1])/ and because it is my heart.” For 10 (10[1])points, name this poet of War is Kind whose (10[1])first collection, The Black Riders, was published in the same year as his Civil War novel about Henry Fleming. ■END■
