"Copyright 1959 by Richard Burdick Eldridge."
"The translations in this book cover a wide span of years, and are of necessity, of uneven quality. I do not apologize for them. ... The meaning or idea must be translated, and sometimes, because of the requirements of rhyme and meter, this can only be approximated. In order that one who knows the French language can make a comparison I have placed the French and English versions on facing pages. "--Foreword.
