From that year until 1916, the two men wintered in the Stone Cottage at Ashdown Forest, with Pound nominally acting as Yeats' secretary.

These changes reflected Pound's distaste for Victorian prosody. In particular, ...

She was so true, so sure of me; and I felt I had something to live for, someone I must not disappoint." [1]. Many of his lessons came from reading R.G. ...
