-----
All the work of my young daughter contained in this first collection of her verse is original and has been written without aid of any kind. A few of them appeared in the Poetry Review and Supplement during 1918-19, one in Country Life, and one in The Book Monthly. The rest are now published for the first time. I wish to acknowledge the immediate recognition and subsequent kindness shown in respect of my little girl's work by the Poetry Review in and since Sept., 1918. The value of such practical encouragement cannot be over-estimated. Vivienne's present age is 15 1/2 years.
