A dozen poems on love by a New Jersey obstetrician (1883-1963) who often wrote them on office prescription pads. In the title poem, first published when he was 72, he wrote: "What power has love but forgiveness? / In other words / by its intervention / what has been done / can be undone."

For this volume, originally published in cloth in 1961, William Carlos Williams collected, and revised, four full-length plays and the libretto of an opera on George Washington. As might be expected of the man who did most in our time to create a new and truly "American" idiom for poetry, Dr. Williams' writing for the stage challenges producers and actors to extend the range of modern drama.

Hab?a sido un arbusto desmedrado que prolonga sus filamentos hasta encontrar el humus necesario en una tierra neuva. Y c?mo me nutr?a! Me nutr?a con la beatitud con que las hojas tr?mulas de clor?fila se extienden al sol; con la beatitud con que una ra?z encuentra un cad?ver en descompositi?n; con la beatitud con que los convalecientes dan sus pasos vacilantes en las ma?anas de primavera, ba?adas de luz...
