PREFACE<br > The first part of The DoTlble Axe was written during<br >the war and finished a year before the war ended, and it<br >bears the sears; but the t)oem is not primarily concerned<br >with lhat ~4rim fohy.

It neutralizes fanaticism and wild<br >hopes; but it provides magnificence for the religious in-<br >stinct, and satisfies our need to admire greatness and re-<br >joice in beauty.<br > The shorter poems that tail the book are expressions,<br >in their different ways, of the same attitude.

But I be-<br > xxi<br >
