personality combines with art to create a rhapsodic
prose possessing the fervor of verse and a style new
in world literature. Some paragraphs one hesitates
whether to print as prose or vers libre. One could
rewrite in metrical form, for example, the description
of the beautiful Marienne Sinclaire, in “The Ball
at Ekeby:”
Her presence gave inspiration to the speeches
And life to the wine.
She gave speed to the violin bows,
And the dancing went gayer than ever
Over the boards that she touched
With her slender feet.
She shone in the tableaux
And in the acting.
