| Publisher Description: Denis Florence MacCarthy was an Irish poet, translator, and biographer. Poems Published in Dublin by M. H. Gill and Son in 1882, an extensive collection edited by the poet's son.His poems are distinguished by a sense of harmony and sympathy with natural beauty. Such poems as "The Bridal of the Year," "Summer Longings" (alias "Waiting for the May"), and his long narrative poem, "The Voyage of St. Brendan," are among his most enduring works. The last-mentioned, which paraphrases the "Ave Maria Stella" as the evening song of the sailors, is also marked by the earnest religious feeling which marked its author throughout life. |
