About this book
Selected Poems is by John Masefield. The contents list names From Salt Water Ballads and, among others, Trade Winds, Sea-fever, Prayer and The West Wind. In the poem When Bony Death, the speaker asks old Time to grant that These songs may keep her memory beautiful. A poem called The Death Rooms speaks of a soul with many an old decaying room hung with the ragged arras of the past.
A poem tells of someone borne on the shoulders of men to church and repeats the line My God, how lonely The dead are! A scene marked ACT II shows Ahasuerus on his couch asking what the time is.
