Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fray Luis De Leon: A Biographical Fragment In dealing with his Spanish poems, I have tried not to put his claims to con sideration too high. Laboulaye, in La calls Luis de Leon 'le premier lyrique de l'europe moderne'. Phis phrase dates from 1859, and was ad dressed to a generation which delighted in arranging authors in something like the order of a class list. Though I have the highest opinion of Luis de Leon's genius, I have not felt tempted to follow Labou laye's example; I have by preference dis cussed, so far as space allows, such points as the probable chronology of Luis de Leon's poems. Once more I repeat that this is a chapter of a book that will now never be written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
