If we say that the lyric is a song, - a poem which is written to be sung or which sounds as if it might be sung, we should have to include under our definition the old English or Scotch ballad, which has the suggestion of song, but which is narra tive and belongs rather to the type of the short story. Palgrave chose for his anthology those poems which turned upon a single thought, feeling, or situation. Yet this formula did not represent his notion of the lyric; for he adds that he excluded narrative, descriptive, and didactic poems, unless accompanied by rapidity of movement, brevity, and the coloring of human passion. The heart of his defi nition really lay in the last modest phrase, the coloring of human passion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
