But this original meaning was soon lost and confused in a wider usage. The word was applied to many kinds of poems which were current among the people in the 15th and the 16th centuries. Metrical tales of love and adventure and tragedy, versified satires on the nobility and the clergy, moral exhortations and short sermons and rhyme, lyrics in praise of a sweetheart or a soldier -- almost any piece of poetry that passed from mouth to mouth among the minstrels, or was printed on broadside sheets and sold by the peddlers, who were the book canvassers of that day -- might be called a tragical ballett or a godly ballett or a diverting ballett according to the supposed effect upon the hearer. XX The ballads in this volume are collected under these themes: Love, fairyland, adventure, the sea, war, death and sorrow.

The red boards are faded and discolored, with severe edge rubbing, corner bumping, and bumped spine. 6 x 4, 286 pages, 9 ounces XX [From the introduction] A great many of the most interesting and, ultimately, the most valuable short poems in English literature show the poet in his function of prophet and seer. He looks out upon nature and his fellow man and in upon his own soul, with its complex of aspiration and disappointment, and in all this bewildering circumstance he sees further than other men see; he teaches them how to meet the issues of life, or presents by his imagination, in Ruskin's phrase, "Noble grounds for Noble emotions." In this conception the poet is an interpreter, actuated not only by emotion and the gift of expression but by insight and wisdom. XX The poems in this volume are collected under these themes: the interpretation of nature, portraits of people, poems in characters, life's philosophy.

The red boards are faded and discolored, with edge rubbing, corner bumping, and bumped spine (top and bottom). 6 x 4, 283 pages, 9 ounces XX [From the introduction] A study of the ode shows that since Spenser's time its form has rounded out a full cycle and returned to something like what it was in his and Milton's hands -- a dignified, eloquent, and organ-like rather than lyrical strain of music whose stanzaic and metrical form is not prescribed by very strict laws.
