Text

Letter from Amy Lowell to Florence Ayscough ; Aug. 16 (1919).
The great poets of the T'ang Dynasty, particularily Li T'ai Po, are without doubt among the finest poets that the world has ever had. He seems to me to rank second to none in any country in lyric poetry, and it seems to me as though Tu Fu were equally fine.
