as any painter could desire. His beautifully chiseled face, nobly patrician, was framed in long hair and flowing beard. Large, melting eyes; an angelic smile; and a voice of flutelike quality which was literally enchanting.

No idealized conception of a poet could find more suitable embodiment than in this gentle singer.
